From May 1 through Wednesday, Pablo Sandoval hit .228 with a .268 on-base percentage and .324 slugging percentage. Perhaps his struggle will get a bit easier after Thursday.

Before the Giants' 7-6 loss, Sandoval spent a long time watching video with hitting coach Hensley Meulens and first-base coach Roberto Kelly. Sandoval said they discovered a flaw in the way he was positioning his hands. Then, in his first three at-bats, against right-hander Mike Leake, Sandoval singled twice and hit a fly to the warning track.

Asked if the video session helped, Sandoval said, "A little bit, especially left-handed."
