Season series: Giants leads 2-0, winning 10-0 Tuesday and 5-3 Wednesday
The Giants had been shut out in 3 of their previous 4 games heading into this series, but they have gone 7 of 15 with runners in scoring position in taking the 1st 2 games against Baltimore. They head into Thursday looking for a 3rd straight conquest for the 1st time since Aug. 18-20.
