The Giants followed up their 107-win campaign by going 81-81, the first .500 finish in the franchise’s 140-year history.
Absent a pennant race, a division sprint or wild card wackiness, the Giants wrapped their slog to the finish line of a disappointing season on a bright note Wednesday, in an 8-1 win over the San Diego Padres.
The Giants will next play baseball 143 days from Thursday, when they open their 2023 Cactus League schedule, and the group of players will surely look different than the 28 who finished the season in San Diego.One player who has carved out a spot for himself next spring is David Villar, who has impressed more than anyone provided a showcase over the final month of the season.
Villar went first-pitch swinging in the fourth and put Craig Stammen’s cutter into the left-field seats, driving home Brandon Crawford, who singled to lead off the inning, for the first two runs of a four-run fourth inning rally. He got an assist in the eighth from left fielder Jurickson Profar, who let a deep fly ball down the left field line glance off his glove and over the wall for Villar’s second homer, increasing the Giants’ lead to 7-1.
