(ā€œMLBā€), Major League Baseball Properties, Inc., The MLB Network, LLC, the Major League Baseball Clubs (ā€œClubsā€), each of their parent, subsidiary, affiliated, and related entities, any entity which, now or in the future, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Clubs or the BOC, and the owners, general and limited partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, and agents of the foregoing entities. The Sweepstakes is subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. Void outside the Eligible Territory and where prohibited or restricted by law, rule, or regulation.

HOW TO ENTER: The Sweepstakes entry period begins at 10:00 AM Pacific Time (ā€œPTā€) on Friday, September 15, 2023 and ends at 11:59 PM PT on Wednesday, September 27, 2023 (ā€œEntry Periodā€). You may enter the Sweepstakes in one of the following two ways: (1) by completing an online form or (2) by being a Ticketholder (defined below). No other method of entry will be accepted. Limit one (1) entry per person/email address/household, regardless of method of entry, except that a Proxy Ticketholder (defined below) may receive entry(ies) in excess of the stated limit for each transferred Game ticket. Additional entries beyond the specified limit will be void.

  1. Online Method: To enter online, go to sfgiants.com/fanappreciation and click on the Sweepstakes banners, buttons, and/or links to access the online entry form for the Sweepstakes. By successfully transmitting a completed online entry form during the Entry Period as directed, you will be entered in the Sweepstakes. All information submitted online by entrants is subject to, and will be treated in a manner consistent with, MLBā€™s Terms of Use (accessible at mlb.com/tou) and Privacy Policy (accessible at mlb.com/privacy). Entrants must fully complete and submit all non-optional data requested on the entry form to be eligible. Incomplete and/or inaccurate entries are void. All online entries must include a valid email address for the entrant. Online entrants to the Sweepstakes may be given the option to receive (a) commercial email from Sponsor and/or MLB and/or (b) mobile text messages and updates from Sponsor or MLB; however, eligibility to participate in the Sweepstakes is not dependent upon entrantā€™s consent to receive such emails and/or mobile text messages and updates and consenting to receive such emails and/or mobile text messages and updates will not impact any entrantā€™s chances of winning. Standard messaging rates apply to mobile text messages and updates. Check with your mobile service provider for more information.

  2. Ticketholder Method. Eligible individuals who are the rightful ticketholder of a ticket with a seat location for the San Francisco Giants home game played on Sunday, October 1, 2023 (ā€œTicketholderā€), at Oracle Park in San Francisco (the ā€œGameā€) will be automatically entered into the Sweepstakes. In other words, all seat locations for the Game will be automatically entered into the random drawing. For purposes of these Official Rules, a Ticketholder is also an eligible individual who is transferred a Game ticket with a seat location by his/her minor child or legal ward (ā€œProxy Ticketholderā€). Eligible individuals having a standing room only ticket (i.e., a ticket without a seat location) will not be automatically entered in the Sweepstakes. Ticket must be a valid ticket. Entrant is the Ticketholder, which, for the avoidance of doubt, is not necessarily the individual who purchased the ticket. Ticketholders may opt out of participating in the Sweepstakes by emailing [email protected] before September 27, 2023 with a picture of the ticket showing the seat location for the Game and a statement that the Ticketholder wishes to opt out of the 2023 Giants Fan Appreciation Sweepstakes.

RANDOM DRAWING; ODDS: On or about Thursday, September 28, 2023 (ā€œDrawing Dateā€), the potential winners will be selected by random drawing from among all eligible entries received. A separate drawing will be conducted and separate potential winners will be drawn for each Prize. Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, the potential winners will be declared the official winners of the Sweepstakes. Odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received. Limit one (1) prize per person, family, or household.
