Preview: In search of offense against a team that allows it

The San Francisco Giants offense went stone cold over the weekend. It was ugly. It was not fun. In four games and 33 innings the bats mustered just three runs — and one of those came after Rob Manfred gifted them a free runner at second base.

Remarkably, the Giants still split their series with the Washington Nationals. But winning games while averaging less than a run per contest is not exactly a sustainable formula, so they’ll have to remember how to hit sooner rather than later if they want to hold onto their spot atop the NL West.
