San Francisco Giants vs Pittsburgh Pirates
12:35 PM ET, April 28, 2011
PNC Park, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
A series with the Pittsburgh Pirates would appear to be a good chance for the San Francisco Giants to shake out of their offensive slump.
That hasn't been the case yet.
The Giants look to bounce back from their first shutout loss of the season and avoid a seventh loss in eight games when they finish this three-game set against the Pirates on Thursday afternoon at PNC Park.
San Francisco (11-12) has totaled 14 runs with a .198 batting average and one homer while dropping five of six. The Giants swatted 12 homers while winning six of their previous seven.
Their current struggles continued Wednesday, when they mustered six hits -- all singles -- in a 2-0 loss to Pittsburgh (11-13). San Francisco won Tuesday's series opener 3-2, but scored all three of those runs on plays that didn't involve hits.
