15 Games
After polishing off the Brew Crew today, the Giants head home for the most vital portion of their schedule. Every one of their remaining 15 games is against a team that has something to play for and all have winning records. They play the Padres and Dodgers six times each and the Astros three times. So much for the cakewalks against Arizona or Milwaukee. If the Giants intend to advance to the postseason, they most assuredly will earn it. While the hoopla is centered around Barry entering the vaunted Val Halla of baseball immortals, winning games will be the key. All of their opponents have easier paths to glory.
Schedule of opponents
Cubs: 4 home 4 away with Cincy (.462), 2 at Fla (.531), 3 at Pitt (.452), 3 at NY (.432), 3 home with Atl (.589)
Astros: 3 home 3 away with Mil, 3 at SF, 3 home Stl, 3 home Colo
San Diego: 1 home 3 away with LA, 3 home 3 away with SF, 3 home 3 away with Ari
LA: 1 away 3 home with LA, 4 home 3 away with Colo, 3 home 3 away with SF
Fla: 1 home 3 away Mon, 2 home Chi, 3 home 3 away with Atl, 3 home 4 away with Phil
