Winners of seven in a row, the Giants play host to the Padres and D-backs looking to stay hot following a 6-0 road trip
The San Francisco Giants aren’t just hot, but playing well at an opportune time. Amid an 11-4 start to June, they have gone 6-0 against NL West foes and will have seven more opportunities this homestand.
With the best record in the majors since Mother’s Day , San Francisco will play host to the team with the third-best record in that span: the D-backs, who have played 20-11 ball to maintain a 4.5 game hold on first place. The Giants started the year 1-7 against divisional opponents and will be seeking to avenge a sweep at the hands of the Padres in Mexico City and losing three of four last month in Arizona.
The hottest team in baseball has gone a month without winning a series at home. Really. Since taking two of three from the Marlins over the third weekend in May, the Giants have lost three straight series at Oracle Park while going 14-2 on the road, where they have won their past nine.
The upstart D-backs haven’t run out of juice yet — the third-youngest group of position players in the NL has the senior circuit’s second-best record — but even their youthful bones will be put to the test this week. They travel to Milwaukee for three games, Monday through Wednesday, then on to Washington, D.C., for a one-off makeup game Thursday.
