WATCH Giants vs. Dodgers Online Live Stream, Top MLB Teams 2015: Free Game 1 Coverage

Baseball's back for the official 2015 MLB season, and things are finally heating-up!

The San Francisco Giants take the field against rivals the Los Angeles Dodgers in Week 22 of the regular season on Monday, August 31 at 10:10 p.m. EST at beloved Dodgers Stadium in California. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Game 1 evening ballgame online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Both San Fran and LA snag rather high spots in ESPN.com's official break-down of all 30 teams (power rankings):

Giants (10): "The addition of Marlon Byrd has helped buoy the offense temporarily, but the Giants' lineup is still struggling with two main cogs on the disabled list. San Francisco hopes Joe Panik and Hunter Pence return to the field soon, as the team sits 3½ games behind the Dodgers in the NL West." Andrew Tweedy, West Coast Bias 

San Francisco currently maintains a steady 69-61 winning record and still remains 2nd in the National League Western Division.

Dodgers (8): "Clayton Kershaw's last loss came on June 27; in 10 starts since, he has a 0.92 ERA and a 6-0 record. Vin Scully will be coming back in 2016, but he believes it will be his final year in the booth. Los Angeles is 3-9 versus San Francisco so far in 2015, and host them for three games this week." Diane Firstman, Value Over Replacement Grit 

With that, Los Angeles holds an extremely impressive 72-57 winning record and remains 1st in the National League Western Division.

Tonight's ballgame will be broadcasted live on local sports channels MLBN, SNLA, and CSBy.
