Giants are 5-3, or 101-61 when fully extrapolated over the course of the season. They're 1 game behind the Dodgers, and 1/2 game behind the 6-3 Padres (whom they've beaten twice).
Apparently the curse of AT&T Park has returned. The Giants currently 23rd in batting average and OPS among the 30 MLB teams, 24th in runs scored, but 6th in HRs. Ruf, Longoria, La Stella and Posey are doing well. Solano and Dickerson are okay. Everyone else is in a slump, including Stanford's Own Austin Slater (4/26 with 4 walks, 1 extra base hit (HR) and 11 strikeouts). But Slater is still doing better than Yastrzemski.
Conversely, Giants are 5th in MLB in pitching ERA and 8th in WHIP. And fielding-wise, Giants are tied for 3rd in MLB with a .993 average and 8th in overall efficiency after committing the most errors in MLB in spring training.
Go figure.
