SAN FRANCISCO

Regardless of Sunday’s outcome, the Giants were assured of the majors’ best record entering the All-Star break. Asked before his team’s first-half finale about the main reason for this, manager Bruce Bochy answered decisively.

“If you had me pick one thing, I’d have to say our starting pitching,” Bochy said, “the great job they’ve done of keeping us in games.”

In that sense, the Giants’ first half ended on a fitting note.
