On May 29, Bruce Bochy moved Buster Posey up to the #2 spot in the batting order, and even though the Giants lost to the Rockies 11-4 that day, that game and the 12 thereafter in which Posey played and hit #2, the Giants averaged 5 runs per game.
All of that changed once Evan Longoria went down with a broken hand and Brandon Belt came off the disabled list following his appendectomy. In that micro split of 4 total games, the Giants are averaging 2.75 runs per game.
