San Francisco Giants lose season finale to Dodgers

The San Francisco Giants concluded their 2026 season with a 5-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers at Oracle Park. The defeat completed a three-game series sweep by the Dodgers, who are now preparing for the postseason.

The final game was marked by the departure of longtime broadcaster Mike Krukow, who performed his last broadcast alongside Duane Kuiper. The Giants finished the season with a 65-97 record, placing them fourth in the NL West.

Giants manager Tony Vitello was ejected during the third inning after an argument with umpires regarding a check-swing call involving Dodgers player Mookie Betts. This incident marked Vitello’s seventh ejection of the season, the highest in the league. Despite the ejection, the game remained tied 1-1 through six innings until the Dodgers secured the win in the 10th inning with a three-run home run by Andy Pages.
