Promo Reel

SAN FRANCISCO — With the National League’s stolen base leader at first base, Johnny Cueto bolted off the mound. He charged at Jonathan Villar between first and second, a textbook maneuver to instigate a rundown. But Cueto had no interest in handing off the ball. He slapped his glove on the Brewers speedster, causing him […]

Giants manager Bruce Bochy joined Murph & Mac on KNBR and talked about his ace Madison Bumgarner’s desire to participate in the Home Run Derby.

SAN FRANCISCO — Madison Bumgarner laughed off a question about feeling as comfortable in the batter’s box as he does on the mound. He sees first-hand how tough a hitter’s craft is, and has his own share of struggles when he’s not served fastball over the plate. But the spotlight shines on Bumgarner when he steps […]

SAN FRANCISCO — Despite stranding 13 runners in eight innings, the Giants (40-26) squeaked past the Brewers (30-35), 3-2, backed by eight strong innings from Madison Bumgarner (8-2, 1.91 ERA). It’s the team’s 16th one-run win of the season, the most in the major leagues. Here’s how we arrived to that point Tuesday night. The big […]

Duane Kuiper joined Murph & Mac on KNBR Tuesday morning to recap the Giants’ win over the Brewers. He also discussed the prospect of a Ryan Braun trade and how Brandon Crawford continues to impress on defense.

SAN FRANCISCO — Bruce Bochy knows the reason his team is tied for the most one-run wins in baseball. He points to a classic foundation: pitching and defense. The manager also knows why his team is in so many of those situations to begin with: the offense, or lack thereof. After a homestand featuring five […]

OAKLAND — Of all the shade thrown at the Warriors by ex-players and media members, this one from last week’s Game 3 blowout loss looms large: Warriors have nothing if jumpers aren't falling. Great when they do fall, but that's why not an all time great team — Pete Prisco (@PriscoCBS) June 9, 2016 It […]

SAN FRANCISCO — In a homestand filled with nothing but one-run games and extra-inning affairs, one finally broke open. The Giants (39-26) won 9-4 against the Brewers (30-34), equaling their run total over the last three games. Matt Cain (1-5, 5.34) was ineffective over his three and two-thirds innings, but Albert Suarez rescued the bullpen […]

OAKLAND — The Warriors were run over by a train in Game 5 and no circumstance was going to save them. Blame Draymond Green’s suspension for the Warriors’ 112-97 loss, if you must. Blame a 3/21 shooting clip from three-point territory in the second half — maybe that’s more realistic. The bench surely did not show up, scoring just […]

OAKLAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers are not going down without a fight as they dominated the Warriors with superstar power in a Game 5 112-97 victory Monday night at Oracle Arena. In a pair of heroic efforts, LeBron James and Kyrie Irving each scored 41 points and the Cavs have all the confidence in the world going back home […]
