The Giants' bullpen has allowed 33 inherited runners to score this season, tied for sixth-most in the majors. Since the end of April the unit has posted a 5.35 ERA, third-worst in baseball. The front office traded two relievers in the offseason and lost another to elbow surgery.
The Giants reached 1,000 total bases for the first time in the National League this season. Two regulars rank among the league's top five hitters in batting average, and the team has produced two active 11-game hitting streaks. A position player reached 15 home runs faster than any Giant since Barry Bonds.
