How to Catch Every San Francisco Giants Game: A Fan's Guide to TV Triumph (or Streaming Supremacy)
Ah, baseball season. The crack of the bat, the smell of peanuts (or is that just someone's old glove?), and the thrill of watching the San Francisco Giants launch another dinger over the outfield wall. But where do you, a loyal (and hopefully not too frustrated) Giants fan, catch all the action? Fear not, fellow fan, for I have compiled this handy-dandy guide to watching your favorite team on TV (or streaming, we're not judging).

Cable? Cord Cutter? We Got You Covered
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.
There are two main ways to watch the Giants play: cable and streaming services. Let's break it down like a Barry Bonds fastball:
-
Cable: If you're rocking the old-school cable box, you'll want to find NBC Sports Bay Area. This is your one-stop shop for most Giants games, assuming you live in the Bay Area. Out-of-market? Don't worry, we'll get to that in a sec. Nationally televised games might be on FOX, FS1, ESPN, TBS, MLB Network, or even that new fancy Apple TV+ thing (seriously, who knew?).
-
Streaming Services: Cut the cord? No problem! Many streaming services offer NBC Sports Bay Area, including YouTube TV, FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, and DirectTV Stream. Just sign up, find the channel, and cheer on the Giants like you're sitting right there in Oracle Park (without the overpriced nachos).
Blackouts? There's an App for That (Well, Sort Of)
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.
Living outside the Bay Area and facing those dreaded blackouts? MLB.TV is your hero (or villain, depending on your bank account). This subscription service lets you watch every single Giants game out-of-market, but there's a catch: you can't watch live games if they're also being broadcast in your local area. Still, it's a great option for catching every pitch, even if it's not live.
QuickTip: Pay close attention to transitions.
Bonus Tip: Don't Forget the Radio!
For those who like their baseball old-school, there's always the radio. The Giants Radio Network broadcasts every game, bringing you all the action (and passionate announcers) in your ear. Perfect for those summer BBQs, or when you just can't stand to look at another replay of Brandon Crawford's defense (hey, we all love him, but sometimes...).
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
There You Have It!
With a little planning, you can be watching every Giants game, from the first pitch to the last out. So grab your favorite Giants jersey, settle in on the couch, and cheer on your team! Just remember, even with the best TV setup, sometimes you gotta admit... the real magic happens down at the ballpark with a delicious overpriced hot dog in hand.
