San Francisco Giants First Baseman Wilmer Flores With Great First 23 Games
San Francisco Giants First Baseman Wilmer Flores is in elite company with his start to the 2025 season. He is one of eight players in franchise history to have 7+ home runs and 24+ RBI in the team’s first 23 regular season games. Alongside Flores on this list are Barry Bonds, Willie Mays, and Matt Williams.
The performance of Flores in 2025 has been a revelation. He is tied for fifth in the league in home runs and tied for second in RBI. Will he be able to maintain his high level of play over the remainder of the season?
San Francisco Giants Season Summary
The team has gotten off to a strong start this year. They are third in the National League West with a 15-8 record. They are a game behind the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres for the lead in a loaded division. San Francisco’s offense has been middling. They are 22nd in batting average, 11th in home runs, and fifth in runs scored. Flores leads the ballclub in home runs and RBI. Center Fielder Jung Hoo Lee is also top 15 in batting average and OPS.
San Fran’s pitching staff has been its strength this season. They are sixth in ERA, eighth in strikeouts, and 10th in opposing batting average. Starting Pitcher Logan Webb has been great to start 2025. He is 19th in ERA and sixth in strikeouts.Â
Final Thoughts
Flores and the San Francisco Giants return to the diamond this evening when they host the Milwaukee Brewers for the second game of their four-game set. If San Francisco can get better production on offense while maintaining a great pitching staff, they will be a force this year in the National League.
