The San Diego Padres entered the 2026 season knowing the back of their starting rotation was not going to intimidate even the worst of lineups and the San Francisco Giants have proven that taking the first two games of their series at Petco Park by combined scores of 12-5.

If you’re new to these parts — “these parts” being the generic internet space surrounding the San Francisco Giants — then you’ll need to familiarize yourself with the lingo. Namely, one phrase: a “Webbing.” A Webbing is the tragic sequel to a Caining, wherein a star Giants pitcher — first Matt Cain, now Logan Webb […]

Good morning, baseball fans! Today, I wanted to check in to see how everyone is feeling after the first series of the year for the San Francisco Giants, in which they were swept by the New York Yankees. Yes, I know they will have technically started the second series by the time you’re reading this, […]
My dad used to always tell me that you only get one chance to make a good first impression. He’s right, though thankfully in baseball, the playoff teams aren’t chosen based on their first impressions. For their first series of the season — a putrid, feckless, and deeply uncompetitive sweep at the hands of the […]
The San Diego Padres recorded just three hits against San Francisco Giants pitching, but the last hit was the most exciting. Jackson Merrill strode to the plate with one on and two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning with the Padres trailing 3-0. He worked the count full and then belted a two-run […]
The Yankees passed their first test of the regular season with flying colors, tranquilizing the Giants in a three-game sweep.

The M’s, of course, came a game away from reaching the Fall Classic […]

The bullpen was the lone bright spot for the San Francisco Giants in what was otherwise a miserable opening series sweep against the New York Yankees. But that didn’t keep the team from seeking an upgrade, just a few days into the season. On Monday afternoon, ahead of their second series of the year (against […]
Milwaukee has acquired Venezuelan outfielder Luis Matos from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for cash considerations. To make room on the 40-man roster, LHP Sammy Peralta has been designated for assignment.

It sure would be nice for the San Francisco Giants to get a win under their belt this week. Hopefully, that win happens in this series against the San Diego Padres. On the other hand, over the last four seasons, the Giants are just 10-19 at Petco Park. History is probably not a predictor of […]
The 2026 Major League Baseball regular season is officially underway, and the Yankees have begun their “run it back” season without a hitch after a three-game series sweep against the Giants. The first two games, including the first MLB game of 2026, were shutouts in favor of the visiting Bombers. Max Fried continued his dominance […]
We did it, folks. We survived the long and cold baseball offseason, and now not only has San Francisco Giants baseball returned, but also San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball. Only one of the organization’s affiliates has started play, but that team — the AAA Sacramento River Cats — played a trio of games over […]
The results are in from the latest SB Nation Reacts poll, which launched on March 25th, the doomed Opening Night. Regardless of that game and the one that followed, San Francisco Giants fans remain bullish about the teams chances going forward. Well, okay, maybe not bullish. Positive. 55% of the vote went away from 86 […]
The San Diego Padres announced prior to the start of Opening Day that starter Yu Darvish was going to be added to the Restricted List. The move meant Darvish would remain in the San Diego organization, could rehab with the medical staff, but would not be required to follow a certain program or schedule given […]
For the third consecutive year, the Yankees have begun the season by sweeping their first series of the calendar. This year’s opening series was a tour de force of pitching, as Yankee hurlers held the Giants to just one run across all 27 innings of their time in the Bay. Now they head up to […]
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 will travel down to San Diego for a three-game series against their division rivals, the San Diego Padres starting tonight. After that, they will welcome […]
A crucial first step has been made for our 2026 San Francisco Giants. After barely even being able to stand up in the box over the first two games of the season, suddenly the offensive started to find their legs. They looked steady against right-hander Will Warren in the 1st. Back-to-back hits from Luis Arraez […]
Three games, three wins! It’s hard to do much better than that, the Yankees starting off their season with a sweep for the second year in a row.
