Good morning, baseball fans! As someone who has been collecting music electronically for their entire adult life, I have amassed quite a vast collection of random songs over the years. Occasionally, I’ll just put my entire collection on shuffle for a few weeks to see what comes up and last night, I shuffled upon some […]
There’s an old sketch from The State called “The Barry Lutz Show” where a doctor played by Thomas Lennon explains his research in the field of “monkey torture,” accompanied by an adorable simian. He eventually takes a phone call that purportedly tells him he has to stop torturing monkeys forever and let them all go, […]
Tonight almost fell into the bucket of the very frustrating games that this team definitely should have won category. Their starting pitcher went 7 strong innings while their offense continued to squander opportunity after opportunity late into the game. However with 2 outs in the 9th, the biggest star on the team Ketel Marte finally […]

It’s official! The PWHL will play in San Jose next season. In a press conference this afternoon, officials from the Professional Women’s Hockey League were joined on stage by San Jose soccer legend Brandi Chastain and Bay Area skating legend Kristi Yamaguchi to make the announcement. While there are a lot of details to be ironed out before the season starts in December, there are some things that PWHL Executive Vice President of Business Operations Amy Scheer can promise. “I think there’s...
Game Recaps Diamondbacks get production from entire lineup in win over Giants by Alex Weiner [Arizona Sports] Not to be lost on Monday was a solid performance from D-backs starter Zac Gallen, who delivered his first quality start (six-plus innings, three earned runs or fewer) since April 1. That was the game when he blanked […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants continue their local road trip later today when they take on the Arizona Diamondbacks. In the meantime, I thought we’d take a moment to watch a video that the team’s social media crew put out last week on their YouTube channel. In the video, Giants players answer […]
Before Monday’s game, veteran third baseman Nolan Arenado had hit more home runs and driven in more runs against the San Francisco Giants than any other MLB team. Against Monday’s starter Robbie Ray, Arenado had a career slash line of .364/.444/.773. Six pitches into Monday’s game, Arenado had a grand slam and the Arizona Diamondbacks […]
Record: 23-23. Pace: 81-81. Change on 2025: -1. I’ve learned not to tempt the baseball gods by starting on the recap too early. The only time I did so far this season, was the game against the Orioles, where the D-backs led 7-2 in the middle of the sixth inning. It… did not end well. […]

The Diamondbacks did what they were supposed to do in Colorado and took two out of three against the Rockies, though it was touch and go there for a while. They remain below .500, however, and they’ll be looking for another series against a struggling team to leapfrog up past that point again. The Giants […]
The pitching’s a mess and the lineup is a disappointment. Which team am I talking about? Arizona has just 3 more home runs as a team than the Giants (40 to 37) and a sub-average offensive production (95 wRC+). That’s with Corbin Carroll having an MVP-caliber start to the season, a resurgent Nolan Arenado, a […]
Welcome to another new week A’s fans! The team had a lackluster weekend as they dropped two of three to the Giants. Add that to the series loss mid-week to the Cardinals and the A’s did not have a great time in their latest homestand in Sacramento. It’s in the books and behind us now […]
Good morning, baseball fans! A new week of San Francisco Giants baseball begins today, so let’s take a look at what’s on deck for this week. First up, the Giants keep their west coast road trip going as they begin a three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks tonight. After a day off on Thursday, they […]
The San Francisco Giants closed out their three-game series with the Don’t-Call-Us-Sacramento A’s on Sunday and winning the series was a breeze. A stiff wind blew in from left field at Sutter Health Park, but that didn’t stop Luis Arraez and Harrison Bader from hitting home runs out to right, the last one for a […]
The Athletics and Giants battled in the rubber-game of their three-game set on a windy Sunday afternoon in Sacramento. While the wind helped both teams score runs, the weather did not play that much of a factor in this game’s result. Rather it was the A’s bullpen and defensive collapse in the eighth inning, when […]
It’s series finale time, as the San Francisco Giants take on the Oakland/Sacramento/Vegas Athletics for the third game of the series. I’m writing this before the first game, so here’s hoping that the Giants are going for a sweep, or at least a series win today. But who knows! You, probably. If the scheduled starters […]
After splitting the first two games of the series, the Athletics and San Francisco Giants will square off this afternoon in the rubber game of this rivalry weekend showdown. Athletics’ starting pitcher Luis Severino struggled yesterday. The Giants jumped out to a 5-0 lead before holding off the A’s late comeback attempt. As a result, […]
The San Francisco Giants had gone three games without a hit with a runner in scoring position. The offense just couldn’t string together anything of substance. They had become reliant on an inside-the-park-homer or solo shot from Luis Arraez, which is like relying on lightning strikes to be your home’s main provider of electricity. Unsurprisingly, […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Another week of San Francisco Giants baseball comes to a close today, which means it’s time to pick our favorite highlights of the week! For once, I can say we were blessed with an abundance of options this week. But after Thursday night’s game, really, was there any option other than […]
The A’s couldn’t make it two in a row over their former Bay Area rivals. The Green & Gold dropped the middle game of their weekend series against San Francisco Giants on Saturday evening in Sacramento, with their comeback attempt coming up short in a 6-4 loss that drops their record to 23-22. Can still […]
