San Francisco Giants Schedule 2025
by Jill Loeffler •
The San Francisco Giants are back in action at Oracle Park in 2025. Here, you will find the San Francisco Giants schedule that includes all regular season home games this year.
Each year, they host other National League teams, such as the Chicago Cubs, the New York Mets, and their rival Los Angeles Dodgers.
I've been to the ballpark many times over the years, and it's a fantastic experience to see a game here. You are right along the waterfront with cool breezes and there isn't a bad seat in the house.
Since San Francisco has the coolest summers in the US, I recommend you bring a jacket for any night games. It's best to layer, as you might be in the sun at the beginning of the game and then end up with cool breezes after the sun goes down.
Overall, I highly recommend heading to a Giants game, as it's one of the best stadiums in the US!
This is about half way through a night game at Oracle Park between the San Francisco Giants and the Atlanta Braves.On this page, you will learn more about where to find tickets, tips to enjoy a game at Oracle Park, and a brief history of the Giants.

Tips for Attending a Game at Oracle Park
Oracle Park is a great place to watch a San Francisco Giants game.
The park is still relatively new and sits directly on the San Francisco Bay waterfront in the South of Market District.
The park is also easy to reach from the rest of San Francisco.
Several great restaurants and bars are also within two or three blocks of the stadium.
When Do the Gates Open
The Willie Mays Gate is along King Street near 3rd. It's the main and busiest of the four gates at Oracle Park.The stadium has four gates. All gates open 90 minutes before game time on weekdays. The gates open two hours before the first pitch on Saturday and Sunday.
- Willie Mays Gate: This is the main gate and usually the most crowded. It's at 3rd and King.
- 2nd Street Gate: This gate has two entrances. Both are at 2nd and King.
- Marina Gate: This one is behind center field. It's an excellent option for those taking the ferry to the game.
- O'Doul Gate: This one is right along 3rd Street on the northern end of Lefty O'Doul Bridge. You will enter near right field.
You can enter through any gate, no matter where your seats are located. If there is a long line at the Willie Mays Gate, head over to the O'Doul Gate, which is the closest and usually less busy.
What to Wear During the SF Giants Games
One of the things to be aware of before heading to a game at Oracle Park is that it gets cool at night in San Francisco. Even in the heart of the summer, San Francisco night temperatures will dip into the mid to upper 50s.
Due to its location, Oracle Park also gets a slight breeze off the San Francisco Bay. This means you need to come prepared for cool weather during the game.
It's a tricky balance as some seats are in the sun - and quite warm until the sun goes down. It then gets cool.
I typically bring a sweater and a light jacket for night games. I also like to wear shoes with socks so I can keep my toes warm.
Here are the average highs and lows throughout the season. I've also created individual weather pages for each month, so you can determine what you need to wear to the games.
- April Weather: Highs in the low 60s, lows around 50 degrees
- May Weather: Highs in the mid-60s, lows in the low 50s
- June Weather: Highs in the mid to upper 60s, lows in the mid to low 50s
- July Weather: Highs in the mid to upper 60s, lows in the mid-50s
- August Weather: Highs in the upper 60s, lows in the mid-50s
- September Weather: Highs in the low 70s, lows in the mid-50s
Head over to the what to wear in San Francisco page to learn more about the weather during baseball season. On this page, you will also find my tips on what to wear for each season.
Where to Enjoy Three Innings Free
This is a look at the view you get from the free viewing area. This was right before they opened the gates for the game, so no one else was in this area when I took this. It fits up to 24 people per viewing area.Did you know you can catch up to three innings of San Francisco baseball for free?
Many visitors are unaware that the San Francisco Giants offer a small viewing area near McCovey Cove, behind right field, where you can see part of the game for free.
This area is standing room only and offers a decent view for around 100 people at a time.
The San Francisco Giants staff tightly monitors the area, and they turn it over the area to a new group of people after the third, sixth, and ninth innings.
This is the sign near the free viewing area. They are strict about people vacating so others can watch. If you get in for the first three innings, you are welcome to get back in line to try to see the final three innings as well.There's usually a line to get in for almost every game. However, if you have extra time or want to watch for a bit, this is a fun way to see the San Francisco Giants play.
The map below shows you where to find this area outside the stadium. You'll see people standing in line to get to this section or San Francisco Giants staff waiting in this area to help visitors.
Public Transit to Oracle Park from San Francisco
It's easy to get Oracle Park from the rest of San Francisco. And, if you love to walk, it's only about a mile from Union Square.
Here are some of the top options:
- T Muni Line: This is a great option if you come from Union Square or Chinatown. It drops off about a block from the stadium at 4th and King Streets.
- N Muni Line: If you are coming from Fisherman's Wharf, take the F Streetcar to the N Muni Line. This will drop you off in front of the stadium. You can also pick up the N at all stops along Market Street.
- Uber/Lyft/Waymo: Taking a ride share to the stadium is great before the game. They will drop you off about a block from Oracle. Because of demand after the games, the prices usually spike, and it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour for your ride to arrive.
Ferries from Across the SF Bay
This is one of the special events ferries at the dock behind Oracle. They run a few of these directly from across the bay, making attending a game much easier than driving.Two ferry services that offer service to and from Oracle for the San Francisco Giants games. It's a quick and easy way to get to the games.
Both ferries drop off behind center field a few steps from the Marina Gate.
- San Francisco Bay Ferry: The San Francisco Bay Ferry offers direct routes from Oakland and Alameda on game days. This is an excellent option for those living in the East Bay. Only a few ferries run this route, and the last one leaves shortly after the end of the game. Tickets for these ferries sell out early, so pick up your tickets as soon as you can. Find more details on their site.
- Golden Gate Ferry: You can also take a ferry from Marin. This ferry leaves from Larkspur Landing and drops you off at Oracle Park. The return ferry leaves Oracle 30 minutes after the final out or 30 minutes after the final fireworks (this is only on the nights when Oracle offers a fireworks show). These are also VERY popular, so pick your tickets up in advance. Find tickets for the Golden Gate Ferry.
Other Ways to Get to Oracle
This is the drop-off station for Oracle Park. It gets crowded, so if you select this option, I recommend heading over early so you can drop off your bike before the game.There are also a few other ways to get to Oracle Park to see the San Francisco Giants.
- Walk: It's about 3 miles from Fisherman's Wharf and about a mile from Union Square. Both options take you over small hills, but nothing too steep. If you want to enjoy the day before the game, it's a great way to get here.
- Rent a Bicycle: You can also use a rent-by-the-minute or hour bicycle. Lyft is one of the companies that offers this option and they have parking for their bikes on the corner of 2nd Street and Townsend Street. This is about a block from Oracle Park.
- Rent a Scooter: Another option is to take a scooter. You can pick one up along the way and drop it off anywhere at or near the ballpark.
Food at the Stadium
This is one of the most popular picks at Oracle: a hot dog and a beer. It's one of several food options all around the stadium.What type of food can you expect inside Oracle Stadium?
In my experience, you will find a wide variety of options.
I've enjoyed everything from a simple hot dog and beer to some higher-end options near center field.
You can find pizza, sausages, clam chowder, and more.
Here are a few top picks. Many of these have one or more locations on each level.
- Tony's Pizza, Slice House by Tony Gemignani: Tony is one of the most famous pizza makers in San Francisco (and the world). If you want a slice of pizza, stop here to grab a slice.
- Barchetta: Pick up a Porchetta sandwich (a savory Italian dish of thinly sliced pork roast on a crusty roll), some garlic fries or a glass or beer or wine.
- Say Hey! Sausage Specialties: This is where I usually pick up a simple hot dog, sausage, or some nachos to enjoy during the games.
- Giants Vintage Wine Bar: If you are looking for some higher-end wines, head to the Giants Vintage Wine Bar. It's a grab-and-go spot with a great selection.
- Restaurants Behind Center Field: There is a section behind center field with a variety of great restaurant options. Some top picks include Crazy Crab'z, Anchor Grill, and the Pier 44 Chowder House. There are also a couple of places to grab a beer and several places to sit to enjoy your food. This area is on the main level.
- Hop Valley Brewing Company: I also like the craft beers at the Hop Valley Brewing Company. My favorite is their Trippy Rickey Cherry Lime Ale. They usually have about five or six beers on tap and several of their beers in cans.
Where to Grab Drinks or Food Before/After the Game
Frankie's is one of my favorites before the games. They have reasonably priced food and drinks with some great outdoor spots to enjoy before you head to Oracle Park.I love going to baseball games and I also have a lot of fun grabbing a couple of drinks or food before or after the game. Here are some of my favorite places to go for food or drinks near the stadium.
- 21st Amendment: This is one of my favorites. It's a relatively large bar, restaurant, and brewery (for San Francisco standards). It also attracts several local San Francisco Giants fans. While you're here, you will want to try the Watermelon Wheat Beer - it's the perfect summer drink. They open a small outdoor area to accommodate more people during and after the games. 563 2nd Street. More great breweries around SF.
- Momo's: This restaurant and bar is across the street from Oracle Park. They cater to the San Francisco Giants crowd with a huge outdoor area and drink specials on game days. 760 2nd Street
- Underdogs Cantina: This modern taqueria has a lot of seating and is a popular pick with those heading to a San Francisco Giants game. They have everything from burrito bowls to tacos. They also have a good selection of vegetarian options, beers, and sports on their TVs. 128 King Street
- Frankie's Java House: A great casual spot steps from the stadium is Frankie's Java House. It's a great place to grab a beer, a burger, or a hotel dog before the game. They also offer a Game Day Special for only $10, including an all beef frank and a beer. They are open before and after all Giants games (even on Monday and Tuesday - when they are typically closed). Pier 40

Brief San Francisco Giants History
The Giants moved to San Francisco from New York for the start of the 1958 season. For years, the team played at Candlestick Park on the southern end of San Francisco.
In 1999, they moved to their current home at Oracle Park.
World Series
One of the most memorable moments in San Francisco Giants history was Game 3 of the 1989 World Series against the Oakland Athletics.
An earthquake hit the area a few minutes before the game started, and they had to postpone the game.
It caused over 5 billion dollars in damage. Because of that, the Loma Prieta Earthquake was quickly dubbed the "World Series Earthquake."
They lost that year but went on to win the World Series in 2010, 2012, & 2014.
Barry Bonds Records & Controversy
This is a plaque to commemorate the date when Bonds hit his 756th home run. There are also plaques for when he hit 600, 660, and 700 home runs.Over the years, the club has had several incredibly talented players. One of the most famous - and most controversial - is Barry Bonds.
During his time with the SF Giants, he became the first person to hit 73 runs in a season (2001), and he also hit 762 home runs in his career, which is the current all-time record.
His power numbers allowed him to rack up all kinds of awards, including being voted the Most Valuable Player seven times (the next closest is 3 times).
However, mystery and doubt followed him for years during his career afterward, as many speculated that he was using performance-enhancing drugs as he bulked up quite a bit over a short period.
The controversy heated up in 2011 when Bonds was put on trial. In April of that year, Bonds was acquitted of wrongdoing and walked away a free man.
More SF Giants History
I've compiled a really brief look at some SF Giants' recent history here. If you want to learn more, stroll around Oracle Park before or after a game.

These are just some of the plaques on the northern side of Oracle Park that talk about the success of several San Francisco Giants players.
