Upcoming Schedule For San Francisco
San Francisco plays the final game of their three-game set with the Detroit Tigers tomorrow afternoon. The Giants begin a critical four-game series with the Atlanta Braves on Monday. This series will be a crucial one as these teams are separated by only one game in the National League Wild Card standings. These teams are going in opposite directions with Atlanta the losers of five straight. How this series unfolds will have massive ramifications on the playoff picture.
The San Francisco Giants are looking to make the MLB Playoffs for the first time since 2021. This strong stretch of games has them in a position to do just that. It will still be an uphill battle for the team because they have been an inconsistent team in 2024. Hopefully, this streak is what the San Francisco Giants needed to enter the home stretch of the 2024 regular season on stable footing.
