SAN FRANCISCO — As the losses continue to pile up, the crowds at Oracle Park continue to dwindle.
The Giants sold a season-low 26,627 tickets for their 6-3 loss to the Pirates on Wednesday and fans who elected to stay home didn’t miss much excitement.
San Francisco fell behind early and only mustered three hits in another frustrating offensive performance at home, where the Giants are averaging just 3.53 runs per game this year.
After setting their previous floor with a paid attendance of 26,826 for Monday’s series opener against the last-place team in the National League Central, the Giants dipped below that total in the club’s 71st home game of the year.
