I believe this list meets the Featured List criteria, along the lines of List of Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Opening Day starting pitchers, List of Los Angeles Dodgers Opening Day starting pitchers and others in the series. Rlendog (talk) 01:38, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Truco (talk · contribs) - great list, few problems however
- Juan Marichal holds the San Francisco Giants record for most Opening Day starts with 10. - comma before "with"
- Marichal has the most wins in Opening Day starts for San Francisco Giants with six. - add the before "San Francisco Giants"
- Zito and Marichal have the most losses in Opening Day starts for the San Francisco Giants with two apiece.' - comma before "with"
- Merge the last three paragraphs into one paragraph.
- Diverse the name of the team in the prose. "San Francisco Giants" is constantly used, refer to them as simply San Francisco or the Giants
- Maybe I missed it, but who "was the most recent Opening Day starter?
- Ref #1 could be used as a General Reference, as seen in 2008 WWE Draft#References.--Truco 02:34, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- Support - excellent list that qualifies as a Featured list.--Truco 21:58, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

- "The San Francisco Giants are a Major League Baseball franchise that moved to San Francisco, California in 1958." "moved to" might confuse readers. Say "based in" in this sentence, and insert a sentence that explains where the team was based before and when they moved.
- "That was the Giants only " Missing an apostrophe.
- "6 wins, 2 losses and 2 no decisions"-->six wins, two losses and two no decisions
- "Reuschel and Burkett are the only pitchers to win more than one Opening Day start for San Francisco without a loss."-->Reuschel and Burkett are the only pitchers to have won more than one Opening Day start for San Francisco without a loss.
- A couple of the image captions are missing possesive apostrophes after "Giants".
