Tuning In: Your Radio Rodeo Options
Gone are the days of huddling around a crackling transistor radio (though, bonus points for authenticity if you can dig one up). Here's your modern-day guide to Giants radio glory:
QuickTip: Pause before scrolling further.
- The OG Way: Dialing Up the Giants Radio Network: It's a classic for a reason, folks. Tune in to KNBR 680 AM or 104.5 FM (depending on your preference for that sweet, sweet AM static) to hear the dulcet tones of the Giants' legendary broadcast crew.
- Streaming the Game (Without Actually Streaming the Game): Not everyone lives in radio range. But fret not, internet warriors! Many radio stations, including KNBR, offer free live streams on their websites or apps. Just be prepared for potential delays – ain't nothin' quite like the thrill (or frustration) of a real-time radio broadcast.
- Satellite Radio: Your Giants Fix on the Go: If you crave Giants baseball while mowing the lawn or stuck in rush hour, consider SiriusXM. Just remember, a subscription is required, so this option isn't exactly "budget-friendly." But hey, at least you'll never miss a pitch (unless you're, you know, in a tunnel).
Pro Tip: Check out the San Francisco Giants website for a complete list of radio affiliates across California and beyond!
Tip: Don’t rush — enjoy the read.
Bonus Round: Going Old School with Local Radio
Feeling nostalgic? Dust off that dusty transistor radio and see if you can pick up a Giants broadcast from a far-flung affiliate station. Imagine the thrill of catching a crackly, barely-recognizable Jon Miller call – a true baseball hipster's delight!
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.

Word to the Wise: This option is a gamble, and results may vary wildly. But hey, if you manage to snag a faint Giants broadcast from, say, Wyoming, well, that's a story for the grandkids.
QuickTip: Read a little, pause, then continue.
