The 2024 San Francisco Giants season is the 142nd season for the franchise in Major League Baseball, their 67th year in San Francisco, and their 25th at Oracle Park. This is their first season under new manager Bob Melvin, after former manager Gabe Kapler was fired during the 2023 season. They attempt to improve upon their disappointing 79–83 record from their 2023 season, make the playoffs and clinch their division for the first time since 2021.
