Giants Come up Short of Playoffs
Monday, September 21st , 2026
It's now time for the San Francisco Giants to start turning their attention to what can be done to help improve the club for next season. The team was formally eliminated from playoff contention today for the 2026 season.
"We knew a title was a long shot at this point, but mentally there's a big difference between a tiny chance and no chance at all," said Giants closer Pat Henderson.
Before this season, the Giants last missed the playoffs in 2024. In the 144 years they have been a Major League Baseball franchise, they have missed the playoffs 126 times. In the last 10 seasons, the Giants have missed the playoffs 7 times. San Francisco has won the World Series 8 times in their history.
