After the 1957 Major League Baseball season, the New York Giants baseball franchise moved to San Francisco. A new baseball stadium would be built for the San Francisco Giants at a point of land jutting into San Francisco Bay, south of the city.

The stadium would be named Candlestick Park in 1960 Candlestick Park. It opened on April 12, 1960. The 1989 World Series. The first World Series games to ever be played at Candlestick Park were in 1962, when the San Francisco Giants lost to the New York Yankees in a quite famous seven-game series. The final game of the series was played at Candlestick. The Giants lost, with the final play of the game being considered one of the greatest moments in baseball history. It would be twenty- seven years before the Giants were again in the World Series.
