SAN DIEGO–In the first two games of the season, nearly every Giants hitter has struggled at the plate.
From a failure to drive the ball to a willingness to chase pitches out of the strike zone, all but one Giants player has looked uncomfortable against the Padres.
Last year, it was Evan Longoria who took the worst swings of the first week. Two days into this year, Longoria already looks like a different player.
“He’s in great shape, he put a lot of hard work in this winter and I think he’s a little more settled in,” manager Bruce Bochy said.
