As the 2021 regular season comes to a close, San Francisco and Los Angeles- the teams with the top two records in the game- are battling it out for the NL West title. The Dodgers- Giants rivalry is one of the fiercest and longest standing in all of sports, dating back to when they were both in New York in the 19th Century. And with so much on the line in this final week…..and then a possible meeting in October, the rivalry is ready to add another chapter to its long and storied history.

@borisgoykhman55472 years ago I'm a die hard Dodgers fan, and I'm gonna be honest, I respect the Giants. They have an amazing logo, organization, fans, players (for the most part), and a beautiful stadium. I think all Giants fans and Dodgers fans can agree that our lil bro in San Diego cant put up a good fight. ... 57

VAMOS GIGANTES 89
@

@Giratina19993 years ago Guys, I’m speaking for both sides (Go Dodgers) but can we both honestly agree this is more brutal of a rivalry than Yankees-Red Sox? Name another rivalry that has this much fan hatred for one another and this much animosity for over 100 years ... 98
@

@sebastianlopez85662 years ago Growing up as a giants fan, there hasn’t been any other games I’ve enjoyed more than The Giants Vs Dodgers games. So much hype and just all out amazing players. And the fan base is astonishing on both sides 4

@gulfmarine88573 years ago As an old fan who saw Mays, McCovey and Bonds Sr. on the same field for my first ever baseball game I can't wait to win the World Series straight through L.A. I had managed to put all the bad times behind me till I watched the vid!
GO LOS GIGANTES DE SAN FRANCISCO! ... 26

@ACEDIAMOND6667 months ago Red Barber's call of "The shot heard around the world" is still a dagger straight through the heart of this 4th generation lifelong Dodgers fan.

@thedude30653 years ago the Cardinals are finally out of the picture
this is how it was meant to be
as it was from the beginning
you cant script it better than this
they finally meet in October
both teams wielding the best squads they've ever fielded, a franchise-best 107 and 106 wins respectively
best of five
may the best team survive ... 8
@

@JohnnygSawyer3 years ago As a Die Hard Dodgers fan, I have to admit that the Giants had a fantastic regular season. You guys never gave up. I literally watched every game that the Dodgers and the Giants played since the All-Star game. What a season this has been for both teams! Good luck and may our boys in blue be on top when the dust settles. 💙⚾💙⚾ ... 5
@

@johnhernandez4953 years ago It's about time someone spoke the TRUTH as there are many great Rivalries in American sports: Lakers/Celtics, Yankees/Red Sox, Ohio St/Michigan, just to name a-few, but the Greatest Rivalry in AMERICAN SPORTS is the DODGERS/GIANTS, GIANTS?DODGERS!!! Always has been, and always will be!! ... 4

@

@stevemeters30903 years ago My man, John Paul Morosi. He always does such a phenomenal job. It's about time he got more shine on one of the major networks. Dude always kills it, and he seems to be very highly regarded by his peers. 7

@

@bayareasportsfan043 years ago As a Giants fan, I hate the Dodgers with every fiber of my being, but I love this rivalry. The best in the league! 11
@

@jerrybrownell36333 years ago All time head to head The Giants lead 1269 to 1247. Giants led the series in New York 721-670. Dodgers including 2021
lead the California series 577-548. There have been 17 ties. Giants have won more WS 8-6. In 2005 the Giants became the
first Professional Sports Team to win 10,000 games( yes they beat the Dodgers). Giants have 17 players in the Hall of Fame.
The Dodgers have 15. In their 131 year rivalry( 1890-2021) they have never faced each other in the Post Season- of course there was no Post Season before 1969. ... 24

@

@robgotti41573 years ago 3rd generation giants fan here .. this is the west coast version of Yankees and red sox .. I respect the dodgers .. they are a great franchise .. thank u for always making it worth watching fellas .. can’t wait for October
@

@stevenlau793 years ago MLB should change the playoff format. Dodgers is the second best record in MLB but is in wild card while lower record like Atlanta is Division leaders.
Go Giants ! 5

@tdDunn3 years ago Man hurt me to hear BELT got hurt. THATS a huge blow to us.. go giants 10

@marthabojorquez74793 years ago I'm Giants fan since 1987' win or lose..from tijuana mexico
@

@davidgutierrez46063 years ago I can’t wait for these playoffs!!! Let’s see what everybody is truly made of! I’m a Dodgers die hard fan since ‘88 when I was born. But the Giants In the playoffs as of the last decade scare me they always seem to beat us they got our number that’s for sure. But I think our pitching is going to make the difference ...
@

@CarlosRuiz-gs2pz3 years ago I sure hope its Dodgers vs Giants in the NLDS!!!! 2
@

@fourthhorseman45313 years ago This 2021 season has been the most fun I've ever had following the NL West! I'm pulling for the Giants, but the Dodgers being able to throw Kershaw, Scherzer and Beuhler at the short division series is going to be fearsome. They seem to be a team configured specifically for crushing the post season. ... 3
@

@dexterjones54973 years ago Dodgers fan here and this is a very challenging season no doubt. I knew that the giants would've bounced back and answered us when we won the world series in 2020. They have a strong team I must admit. I'd like to see them in the NLDS. ...
@

@BKrystall3 years ago As a lifelong Dodgers fan, I do credit the giants for playing superior baseball. A postseason matchup could happen on the division series if the Dodgers or giants win the wild card game. We almost had both the Dodgers and giants in the NLCS in 14 or 16. ... 8
@

@rafaeldiaz31603 years ago Love Baseball Diehard Cub fan but I like to hear other teams history and since Cubs are not going to the playoffs this year I'm rooting for Giants going all the way winning it all this year 👍 GO GIANTS 👍
@

@larryloveless29673 years ago I recently read the 2010 Wille Mays biography by James Hirsch. Starting with his first season in 1951 with the New York Giants through his last two years returning to the Mets one season at a time through Willie's mind was great. I also learned much of his personal life going through the seasons. Being old enough to begin following the Cardinals each year since 1960 I really enjoyed seeing him play. I think the Giants games of the 1960s with Marichal, Mays and Mc Covey and the Dodgers game with Koufax, Wills, and Drysdale were my favorite matchups with the Cardinals. It was great when Cepeda came to the Cards for a few years from the Giants. I enjoyed seeing some highlights from the book I just read. ...
@

@michaelhession21053 years ago Besides Red Sox vs Yankees, this is the best rivalry in baseball, everytime these 2 teams are good at the same time, the energy is insane!
@

@rayostermann78213 years ago 130 years as rivals, hard to beat that. Long time, life time Dodger fan. Moved to the Bay area in the late 80's and met many a Giants fan. Still good friends with them, we talk trash and strategy all year, that is why this is the best game. Always friendly and enjoyable throughout the season having a beer at the bar. In the Pacific northwest now and the coverage of this potent rivalry is minuscule. It is a shame really. Do away with inter-league play. Play those games against your division opponents. Become a true champion of your division. ...
@

@bjsantana84153 years ago They should have meet in the postseason in 2014 , but now we have it. 1
@

@glst19743 years ago Imagine the same postseason where bluebloods Red Sox and Yankees could be a ONE GAME playoff AND a DS with the Giants and Dodgers?! Epic rivalries coming to the postseason, wow.
@

@efraincorpus87773 years ago Basically this is the World Series match! Go Giants!!!
@

@elroybig66653 years ago These last games are intense. LA ALL DAY BABY!! LETS GO!!
@

@Malaysianweeb3 years ago I hope the Cardinals don't deny the Giants and Dodgers a chance to meet in the playoffs again. 4
@

@walker681753 years ago I want a NLDS between these teams, and it looks possible. Dodger batters are heating up right where we needed them to be. Scherzer and company better be ready to face those Cards.
@

@NPC_58492 years ago This rivalry sometimes get too far but I like this rivalry
@

@peetonswitch3 years ago Respect to both teams I would love to see them both in the NLDS ! GO DODGERS 5
@

@sfgiantsfan91363 years ago Definitely a giants fan here, but pretty nervous for the post season as we will either have to go against the dodgers or cardinals… and on top of that we lost Brandon belt for the rest of the regular season for sure. Hopefully we can keep it together ...
@

@casualnoob73163 years ago Even if the two fanbases may hate each other, I think giants and dodgers fans can say this is one of if not the best rivalry in baseball.
