SF Giants' Darin Ruf gives up two-run double after dropping pop-up, getting stuck in third base line netting

Sometimes when a team is in a rut, it seems like things can't possibly get any worse.

They can.

The San Francisco Giants, who enjoyed a strong start to the season, have now lost seven of their past nine games and gone from half a game back of first place to six games back.

On Monday night, they had to stomach a uniquely embarrassing moment in their 13-3 home loss to the New York Mets.

In the top of the 3rd inning, the Giants were nursing a 2-0 lead with the bases loaded for New York with two outs.
