The San Francisco Giants are experiencing a severe downturn at Oracle Park, having lost 13 of their last 14 home games, including a recent sweep by the San Diego Padres. On Monday, the Giants were defeated 4-1, managing only five hits and striking out 10 times. The following night, despite recording 10 hits, they lost 5-1 to the Padres, leaving 11 runners on base. This series of losses has pushed the Giants two games below .500 for the first time this season, causing them to fall behind in the National League West standings. The team's struggles have raised questions about the leadership of manager Bob Melvin as the Giants face an uncertain future heading into the 2026 season.
