Mets broadcaster calls umpires out after Giants’ Tony Vitello gets ejected

Giants manager Tony Vitello was ejected once again on Saturday, and it did not take long for a Mets broadcaster to point out a growing pattern around the men in blue.

Giants’ ejected Tony Vitello goes bonkers after Turner Hill HBP is ruled a foul

With the San Francisco Giants manager Tony Vitello leading the team as a first-time skipper, he’s getting the full experience of arguing with the umpire crew.

Mets pitchers surrender six homers in loss to Giants

Zac Thornton entered today’s game with a 2.93 ERA in 11 starts. It’s been quite the surprising season for the rookie lefty, who has managed those impressive topline numbers despite boasting less than flashy stuff and underlying peripherals. Alas, those topline numbers look a little bit worse after today’s game, as Thornton underwent his worst […]

Weekend BP: Giants announce schedule for mythical Spring Training

On Friday, the San Francisco Giants announced their tentative 2027 Spring Training schedule. “Tentative” is not their word choice. They just opted for a straight up Spring Training schedule. “Tentative” is my word choice, because friends … there probably ain’t gonna be a Spring Training. Or at least, it probably won’t be in spring. A […]

He stands out as a talented hitter, having earned three All-Star selections […] The post Giants’ Rafael Devers accomplishes impressive feat not seen since Barry Bonds in 2004 appeared first on ClutchPoints .

McLean worked around a walk to Rafael Devers in the first and it […]

Local media blasts Giants after ‘slimy’ Kalshi ad: ‘There is something so wrong with our sports’ compass’

The San Francisco Giants, along with the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, Atlanta Braves, and Boston Red Sox, announced a partnership with prediction market Kalshi last week. “Kalshi will receive a mix of marketing and brand integration assets, including in-ballpark signage, radio drops, experiential activations, and other promotional opportunities,” MLB said of the partnerships…

Giants Claim Joel Kuhnel

2:40pm: Per Susan Slusser of The San Francisco Chronicle, the corresponding move is actually catcher Jesús Rodríguez transferring to the 60-day IL. He landed on the 10-day IL August 1 due to right elbow neuritis. Evidently, the Giants don’t expect him back this year, as his 60-day period will extend beyond the end of the […]

Reliever Joel Kuhnel claimed

The Giants have churned themselves a teeny tiny bit more reliever depth with their latest waiver claim. I’m typing this up somewhat slowly in hopes of learning what the corresponding 40-man move will be, but let’s look at this claim real quick just to see if it has any added meaning beyond, “Warm body we […]

The Mets to spend their weekend battling Giants

The New York Mets (63-77) welcome the San Francisco Giants (58-83) for a three-game series at Citi Field.

That said, the […]

Friday BP: Giants claim Brett Harris off of waivers

The San Francisco Giants spent much of the year acting as though the waiver wire did not exist. But they’re now ending the season by trying to make up for lost time.
