One of the magical things about writing about baseball for a living is that, against all odds, every game seems to have its own story. 162 times a year the San Francisco Giants play someone, plus a few dozen more times in the spring and, on a few blue moon occasions, a handful of times […]
Box Score After being limited to just three hits in a shutout loss last night, Milwaukee bounced back in a big way. Starting pitcher Logan Henderson was terrific, Jackson Chourio and William Contreras each had multi-hit games, Luis Lara had three RBIs, and all nine starters recorded at least one hit as the Brewers cruised […]
One night before the induction of San Francisco Giants second baseman/wheelie enthusiast Jeff Kent into the Hall of Fame, Harrison Bader had a setback in his recovery from plantar fasciitis thanks to a scooter accident. Yes, really. This is honestly far more baffling than the traffic accident that nearly blinded San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle […]
Giants starter Trevor McDonald will need to undergo Tommy John surgery, manager Tony Vitello said on Tuesday (link via Maria Guardado of MLB.com). The full UCL reconstruction typically comes with a 14-16 month recovery that’ll probably keep him out for all of 2027. This was the fear when McDonald went on the injured list last week […]
The San Francisco Giants unsteady future plans for their rotation just got murkier. On Tuesday, the team announced what many had feared for a few days: that right-handed pitcher Trevor McDonald will undergo Tommy John surgery to repair his throwing arm. McDonald, who has a 5.12 ERA and a 4.28 FIP on the year, left […]
The San Francisco Giants continue this three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers tonight from Oracle Park. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Landen Roupp, who enters tonight’s game with a 3.93 ERA, 3.31 FIP, with 113 strikeouts to 45 walks in 110 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 5-4 […]
A very, very bad San Francisco Giants season has gotten quite a bit worse. On Tuesday afternoon, the San Francisco Giants announced that do-everything third baseman Casey Schmitt had been placed on the 10-Day Injured List with a torn meniscus in his left knee. Taking his place on the roster is infielder Osleivis Basabe, who […]
The Giants season has gone poorly in every way imaginable. Now the team is offering ticketing promotions to keep fans coming back to the park.
Anthony Bowens, a longtime Giants superfan, lived a baseball gay's dream by going deep in two MLB parks. He wants a chance to homer in all of them.
Giants infielder/outfielder Casey Schmitt was pulled from last night’s win over the Brewers with a knee injury. He came up lame after singling in the second inning. San Francisco is sending Schmitt for an MRI today, manager Tony Vitello told reporters, including Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. The skipper added that Schmitt is […]
The San Francisco Giants issued this angry fan and her dog a refund in their Pride Night fiasco, as well as a dismissive letter.
For the first time since the 2026 MLB All-Star break, the Milwaukee Brewers played a game away from the comfort of their home, and it did not end well for them. They suffered a 3-0 series-opening loss to the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park in San Francisco, California, on Monday, with Brandon Sproat starting [...]
The Milwaukee Brewers got into a little logistical trouble just before their series against the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park in San Francisco, California. Apparently, the Brewers spent several hours on the runway due to an issue with the team plane. While Milwaukee manager Pat Murphy didn’t use that as an excuse, it appeared [...]
The San Diego Padres have six games before the trade deadline on Aug. 3 and that means that each game will be critical to determine whether the team will be a buyer or a seller. The first of those six games is tonight against the Colorado Rockies, and the cellar-dwelling NL West rival would love […]
Box Score The road trip for the Brewers started out with a stagnant offense. They were shut out by the Giants 3-0 on Monday, the fifth time they have been shut out all season. However, it’s also the second time it’s happened in the last six games. Scoring chances were very limited tonight. The first […]
After playing a week and a half at home following the All-Star Break, the Brewers are on the road and spending a week on the West Coast. They will open their trip against the Giants, with game one of a three-game series tonight. Brandon Sproat opens this road trip for the Brewers. He’s been pitching […]
The San Francisco Giants welcome the Milwaukee Brewers to Oracle Park tonight to begin a three-game series. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Tyler Mahle, who enters tonight’s game with a 5.31 ERA, 4.52 FIP, with 77 strikeouts to 33 walks in 83 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ […]
Yesterday, 24-year old pitching wiz Jacob Misiorowski continued his dominate 2026 with a 12-strikeout, 1-hit performance across 5 innings against the lowly Colorado Rockies in Milwaukee. It was his ninth double digit strikeout performance of the season (in 20 starts), and it sparked another tranche of eye-popping posts from Sarah Langs about this velocity demon: […]
Joey Votto made his broadcasting debut during NBC‘s Sunday Night Baseball broadcast of the Phillies’ win over the New York […]
The Minor League Baseball season is winding down a little, and for the first time in a while, the weekend roundup only has six San Francisco Giants affiliates, as the Arizona Complex League season ended last week. Let’s dive into the action for the teams that did play. Link to the 2026 McCovey Chronicles Community […]
As many of you know, my dad lives in San Francisco and I visit him often. Thus I was in San Francisco this past weekend while the Cubs were in Pittsburgh, and I took the opportunity to go to the Giants/Angels game Saturday at Oracle Park. Mainly just because I love baseball — and I […]
Good morning, baseball fans! A new week of San Francisco Giants baseball is upon us. I’m starting to interpret that sentence as a threat, but I guess there’s not really much we can do about that part. This week, the Giants continue their homestand by welcoming the Milwaukee Brewers to Oracle Park tonight to begin […]
Swept, sure. Six times now. But to sweep? Nah, it just ain’t to be. The San Francisco Giants are now 0-5 with the chance to sweep a 3+ game series after their 4-3 loss to the Angels. It’s not just their opponents or their own self-sabotage keeping the broom in the cupboard — the umpires […]
Los Angeles Angels All-Star Mike Trout recorded four hits in Sunday's win over the San Francisco Giants, his first four-hit game since 2021. The post Mike Trout Accomplishes Feat for First Time Since 2021 appeared first on LA Sports Report.
