On the Giants podcast with Michael and Morris:
Giants outfielder Mac Williamson who is missed and has missed about three weeks since his concussion injury. When Williamson was in the lineup, he hit some of the hardest hit balls on the team at that time. On Tuesday night, it was the 17th time in 49 games that the Giants have struck out 10 times.
Hard hit balls, strikeouts, the Giants are two games under .500. It might suggest that their not getting the most out of their hard hit balls. There’s a lot of contrary things going on with the Giants’ statistics.
This could be the season that baseball surpasses its previous strikeout record. Clubs are striking out at a fast pace. The Washington Nationals pitcher Max Scherzer is on a pace to reach 100 strikeouts at the fastest pace in the history of the game.
The game is changing there’s no doubt about it and if the Giants can get through April and May if they can get within hailing distance of the division leaders. The Giants are still within hailing distance after tonight’s game as they are trailing first place Colorado and Arizona by two games. ‘
