On July 20, 2008, he was traded to the San Francisco Giants with minor leaguer Steve Hammond for Ray Durham. He finished the season with the San Jose Giants. He hit a combined .227 with two home runs, 34 RBIs and 62 stolen bases that season. With San Jose in 2009, Ford batted .300 with 9 home runs, 50 RBI and 35 stolen bases.

Ford played 113 games during the 2010 season for the Double-A Richmond Flying Squirrels, hitting .251 with 5 HR, 40 RBI, and 37 stolen bases. On September 1, 2010, when the rosters expanded, Ford was called up for the first time. His flights were delayed, and he arrived after the start of the game. In his major league debut, he was inserted as a pinch runner in the bottom of the 8th inning of a tie game against the Colorado Rockies. He advanced to second base on a bunt-and-run, reached third base on a pitch that got only a few feet away from catcher Miguel Olivo, and scored the game-winning run when Olivo overthrew third base on the play. On April 26, 2011, Ford made a great decision that paid off in the 10th inning in a road game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Ford was at third with one out and the game was tied at 2. Ford had come into the game earlier as a pinch-runner for Aaron Rowand. Freddy Sanchez hit a ground ball to Neil Walker, who threw Sanchez out at first. Ford came home as soon as Walker made the throw. Lyle Overbay made a quick throw to the plate, but Ford slid in safely as Overbay’s throw went to the backstop. The Giants soon won 3-2. On April 30, 2011, Ford recorded his first major league hit. He singled off of Nationals relief pitcher Tyler Clippard in the top of the eighth inning. He was released in November 2011.

His birthplace was Vineland, New Jersey.
