Thu Mar 27 12:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Giants Begin 2025 Season in Cincinnati Under New Leadership
**Cincinnati, OH** – The San Francisco Giants kick off their 2025 season on the road against the Cincinnati Reds this Thursday at 1:10 p.m. PT. This marks the start of a new era for the Giants, following a disappointing 80-82 season in 2024 and significant front office changes.
After firing President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi, the Giants appointed franchise legend Buster Posey to the position. Posey immediately made his mark, signing shortstop Willy Adames to a record-breaking seven-year, $182 million contract. He also bolstered the pitching rotation by adding former Cy Young winner Justin Verlander, filling the void left by Blake Snell’s departure to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Ace Logan Webb will take the mound for the Giants’ Opening Day, while Heliot Ramos is slated to be the team’s 17th consecutive new Opening Day left fielder. The Reds, meanwhile, will be under the direction of new manager Terry Francona.
Bay Area fans can catch the game on NBC Sports Bay Area or via streaming services like FuboTV, YouTube TV, Hulu, and DirectTV Stream. For the first time, the game will also be available on MLB.TV, even within the Giants’ home market.
