OUTLOOK

The Giants (40-58) are in fourth place in the NL West, having lost nine of their last 10. Sunday, the team traded 2B Ray Durham, the Giant with the longest uninterrupted tenure, to Milwaukee. The Giants swept four games June 6-9 at Nationals Park, outscoring the Nationals 25-6. Barry Zito, tied for the major league lead in losses, limited the Nationals to three runs in five innings, earning the win. The Giants, like the Nationals, have nobody with a double-digit HR total; John Bowker and Aaron Rowand have nine each. Brian Wilson is tied for the NL lead with 25 saves.
