Carson Seymour, awarded the opportunity to make his first major league start, found himself in hot water for entirely different reasons. The burly 26-year-old right-hander pitched around a leadoff walk and an error in the first inning, and a double to begin his second frame, but things boiled over after he walked the first batter of the third. The Orioles punished him for a pair of home runs and continued to pile on, sending the Giants to an 11-1 loss.

The Giants are on a roll, having won four straight games with series wins over the two best teams in their league. Yes, I'm talking about the San Francisco Giants. Can you believe it? On Wednesday night, the Giants looked like juggernauts, scoring 12 runs in a series-claiming blowout over the Cubs at Oracle Park. This came on the heels of an impressive series win in Milwaukee.

Ali Wong, the San Francisco-born-and-raised comedian, was in attendance as the Giants took on the Cubs. She sat alongside her partner, comedian and actor Bill Hader, and comedian Nick Kroll. The trio got a shout-out on the ballpark's big screen, with Wong and Hader wearing Giants jerseys and hats. The caption of the social media post says that the two draped in orange and black gear are "confirmed @SFGiants fans."

NEW YORK - The San Francisco Giants will host the New York Yankees to start Major League Baseball's season on March 25, the earliest opening day other than international games. MLB said Tuesday the other 28 teams open the following day, with Kansas City at Atlanta, Minnesota at Baltimore, Washington at the Chicago Cubs, Boston at Cincinnati, the Los Angeles Angels at Houston, Arizona at the Los Angeles Dodgers, Colorado at Miami.

The Giants typically spend Opening Day on the road, but they'll have an opportunity to play their first game of the 2026 season at home as they host the New York Yankees for a three-game series. Opening Day will be on March 25. Following an off-day on March 26, the Giants and Yankees will finish out the series on March 27 and March 28. This will mark just the sixth time since 2000 that the Giants have played Opening Day at home.

For five scoreless innings on Saturday evening, San Francisco flailed against Freddy Peralta (15-5), the National League's leader in wins. The 29-year-old was a bit erratic but still effective. He issued four walks but also allowed only two hits, keeping pace with Logan Webb in a classic pitcher's duel. But with the Giants' bats floundering against Peralta, Brewers manager Pat Murphy gave the Giants a major break by yanking his ace after 96 pitches.

Encarnacion hit his second home run in as many games but left the game with an apparent lower leg injury when trying to beat out an infield single.

The Giants are sending right-handed reliever Tyler Rogers to the New York Mets in exchange for MLB reliever Jose Butto and prospects Blade Tidwell and Drew Gilbert.

The Bunker, a small studio inside Oracle Park, is no longer available for KNBR to use. Co-host Adam Copeland revealed this surprising news during his show.

Mike Yastrzemski made one of the best catches of the year, hands down, during Wednesday's loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Logan Webb pitched a pretty dang good game in Wednesday's loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates with one run on five hits, 11 strikeouts, and four walks in five and two thirds innings.

One of the only things the fan base has cared about the past 10 years is the franchise's decision to employ bullpen games from time to time. They don't like it.

The crucial moment of the game came when Ray walked Juan Soto and Starling Marte, who came around to score on a two-out double by Mark Vientos.

Today the San Francisco Giants will embark on their first planned bullpen game of the 2025 season, marking a strategic shift in their pitching approach.

Injuries to Landen Roupp and Hayden Birdsong leave the Giants with a depleted rotation, leading to a bullpen game this Sunday and uncertainty about starters for upcoming games.

Logan Webb's recent poor performance, allowing six runs in four innings against the Mets, marks one of the worst stretches of his career with 16 earned runs over three starts.
