• JR Hanwa Line: Asaka (Osaka) ⇄ Mikunigaoka (Osaka)

Sakaishi Station opened on 2 February 1932 as Sakaishi Stop on the Hanwa Electric Railway, set up to serve a nearby army garrison rather than central Sakai. It was renamed Sakai-Kanaoka Stop in August 1941 and, on the line's wartime nationalisation, became Kanaoka Station on 1 May 1944. The current name dates from 1 March 1965 when the station was designated the city's representative stop. With JNR's privatisation on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. An overpass-style station building opened on 24 March 1983, ICOCA entered service on 1 November 2003, and station numbering JR-R28 was introduced on 17 March 2018.

Of all stations across Japan named with the suffix "-shi" (city), Sakaishi is the only one located in a designated city.
