Giants Shatter Scoreless Streak Record—What Finally Ignited Their Offense?
New manager Tony Vitello, promoted from the University of Tennessee despite no professional playing or coaching experience, became the ninth manager in baseball history to be shut out in each of his first two games with a team, and seventh manager to do so in his first two games overall, according to Sportradar.
The 20 consecutive scoreless innings matched the previous franchise mark from 1909, when the Giants were scoreless for 13 innings in their opener and the first seven in Game 2.
The only team ever to get shut out three straight times to open the year was San Diego in 2016, when the Padres were swept by the Dodgers on the way to a 68-94 season.
