In today's game, the team that hits more home runs than they allow is usually a recipe for success. That remains true in baseball, but that did not quite play out for the SF Giants in 2025.
The irony of the SF Giants home-run differential in 2025
The Giants have hit 168 home runs this season and have allowed 139 home runs. They are in the middle of the pack at hitting home runs, but they have allowed the fewest home runs in baseball.
That last detail is not too surprising. After all, Oracle Park remains one of the more pitcher-friendly ballparks in baseball.
