Latest news and updates about the Giants
Only three of the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates were in action on Tuesday, as poor AAA Sacramento just can’t get in a game. The River Cats had both of their weekend games cancelled due to rain, which followed them as they traveled north from Sacramento to Tacoma, postponing their game on Tuesday. […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants may be off to a bit of a rocky start this season. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t silver linings in progress. One of those would be starting pitcher Landen Roupp. Broadcaster Mike Krukow made an appearance on KNBR’s “Murph & Markus” show earlier this week and […]
The Cincinnati Reds are back in action in Great American Ball Park on Tuesday evening after Monday’s much needed day off. They’ll send righty Brady Singer to the mound to start this one, the series opener against the San Francisco Giants. The Giants, meanwhile, will send former Cy Young Award winner Robbie Ray, and the […]
The San Francisco Giants head to Ohio today to begin a three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds. Taking the mound for the Giants will be left-hander Robbie Ray, who enters today’s game with a 2.08 ERA, 3.65 FIP, with 18 strikeouts to six walks in 17.1 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ […]
The San Francisco Giants have finally run into a team they’re hitting better than here through the season’s first couple of weeks. If you ignore the Yankees series, the Giants are actually around a league average offense (96 wRC+) in their last 13 games. Meanwhile, the Reds are the worst in the National League (76 […]
The San Francisco Giants have, somewhat unconventionally, only used 27 players this year, which means they’ve only made one move involving the Major League roster. That move was forced on them, after reliever José Buttó was placed on the Injured List, and replaced by Blade Tidwell. It’s the time of the year where teams start […]
It’s that time again: the mega roundup to recap Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates. There will be a lot of words, so proceed with caution! Monday is an off day in the Minors, so all four teams will get back in action on Tuesday. Link to the […]
The concept of a team captain isn’t all that important and fans will typically project their favorite player as the face of the franchise, but with Brandon Belt Celebration Day just 12 days out, it got me thinking, “Who is the captain of the Giants?“ Like, if we had to pick and Tony Vitello wasn’t […]
Good morning, baseball fans! It’s a new week of San Francisco Giants baseball, so it’s time to take a look ahead at what’s on deck for this week. First up, the Giants have an off-day today before heading to Cincinnati to begin a three-game series against the Reds. After that, they head to the nation’s […]
Sunday afternoon in Baltimore. A pleasant breeze swirled around the baked brick of Camden Yards, carrying the warm tang of Old Bay seasoning. One would be forgiven if the pleasant atmosphere suggested a sedate affair, a leisurely stroll of a game. The Giants had gone down in order at the top of the inning against […]
A stellar start by Cade Povich, supported by key contributions at the plate from the previously slumping Pete Alonso and Samuel Basallo, led the Orioles to a 6-2 win at Camden Yards on Sunday afternoon. They have now won five of six and are tied for first place in the AL East. This was the […]
It’s series finale time! The San Francisco Giants are facing the Baltimore Orioles one more time, and then they’re off to Cincinnati, albeit with a well-deserved day off first. For the Giants, it will be righty Adrian Houser on the mound, as he makes his third start of the year for the team. The 33-year […]
It’s going to be a beautiful day in downtown Baltimore. Clear skies. A modest breeze. Highs near 70. That’s baseball weather, folks, and I can think of no better setting for the Orioles to take a series from the visiting Giants. It will be up to Cade Povich to make it happen. To the surprise […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants are wrapping up another week of baseball today, which means it’s time to discuss our favorite highlights of the week! This week, I’m giving the honors to Rafael Devers’ three-run home run in Wednesday’s 5-0 win over the Philadelphia Philies! Devers faced off against Phillies starter Aaron […]
Tonight was a weird one. The MASN broadcast booth got its second consecutive day off with Baltimore playing on national television. The Orioles defense added insult to some unfortunate injuries, and Chris Bassitt looked better despite experiencing some more bad luck. A runner was called out for interference, Ryan Helsley pitched in a non-save situation, […]
The Orioles will attempt to get back to .500 tonight against Logan Webb and the Giants. San Francisco took the first of three games last night in a 6-3 result at Camden Yards. Chris Bassitt will look to bounce back after a rough start to his Orioles tenure. Baltimore inked Bassitt to a one-year, $18.5 […]
After a spirited victory in the series opener, the San Francisco Giants will look to win their series against the Baltimore Orioles today, in the second game of their nine-game road trip. The Giants are sending their ace to the mound, as right-hander Logan Webb will make his fourth start of the year. On the […]
Baseball’s best pure hitter no longer calls San Diego home. Three-time batting champion Luis Arraez joined the San Francisco Giants on a one-year, $12 million deal this offseason. He wanted to return to being an everyday second baseman. The San Diego Padres hoped for a reunion, but could not guarantee playing time at second. Arraez […]
Good morning Birdland, The Orioles debut of their new City Connect jerseys on Friday night did not go great, ending in a 6-3 loss to the visiting San Francisco Giants. That scoreline is kind to the Orioles. They were down 6-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth and were only saved by a Gunnar […]
The San Diego Padres did not start the season well at home in their first six games versus the Detroit Tigers and San Francisco Giants, facing excellent starting pitching and showing an anemic offense, the Friars went 2-4 at home. The road trip to Boston to face the Red Sox for their home opener also […]
At some point this year, there was a brief moment — a very brief moment, but a moment nonetheless — where you wondered if the San Francisco Giants would win three games this season. And now they’ve won three straight. Things can change quickly, it turns out. The Giants beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-3 on […]
The Orioles and Phillies came into this game with good vibes. The Orioles had three consecutive wins against the White Sox, while the San Francisco Giants had scored 11 runs in two games vs the Phillies. Shane Baz and the Orioles were not up to the task, and by the end of the night, the […]
The San Francisco Giants begin this three-game road series against the Baltimore Orioles this afternoon. Tonight’s game will only be broadcast on Apple TV, so just a heads up if you don’t have that you’ll have to tune in on the radio. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Landen Roupp, who enters […]
After a six-game road trip that saw the Orioles both sweep and get swept, they are back home to kick off a six-game homestand against two NL West teams. First up, it’s the fellow orange and black San Francisco Giants, who are off to 5-8 start and in last place in their division. There won’t […]
