Giants shut out 3 games in a row for the first time since 1992, striking out more than any team but the Rockies in September.

SAN FRANCISCO — Before the Giants hosted the Padres Saturday night, Bob Melvin was asked about the chase for history taking place on the other side.
Qualities largely absent from a group of Giants hitters that sputtered its way to a third straight shutout loss, 8-0, striking out 10 more times in the process. Falling to 4-8 in September, only the lowly Rockies have ended a larger share of their plate appearances with strike three than the Giants since entering the final month of the season. It should come as no surprise that the rise accompanies a larger share of the playing time going to young players, who are typically more prone to striking out and populate the list of the Giants’ worst offenders.
