It doesn't matter if you throw 100 when they know it's coming and it's in a hittable location.

 

On 0-2 the ball should be nowhere near the strikezone.

 

Is Gillaspie going to come up against Chapman again?

Especially against Baez. He whiffed like crazy on the first breaking ball.

Is Brandon Belt trying to throw the series?

That was my biggest concern with the Giants in this series - lack of a shutdown reliever. Bochy didn't help matters that inning though and Crawford not turning double play may be the difference in the game. Have to execute in the playoffs, there is very little margin for error.

Thought Crawford coulda made the play on Bryant's single too. And he gave them a run earlier in the game on the Baez error

Actually laughed.

 

Chicago Cubs

*Checks to see if Conor is due up*

Cub fans were crying on my Facebook page now it's back to cocky city.

Giants bullpen converted 43 saves in 2016. They blew 32 saves. That's unbelievable for a playoff team.

Well that sucked

Oh great it's Brandon Belt

What's unbelievable is Bochy using five f***ing relievers in a single inning with a sizable lead. He got too f***ing cute and blew an amazing opportunity to knock the Cubs out of the playoffs.

But, in theory, he was playing the BEST matchups, the odds of NONE of them working out is kind of crazy.

Especially considering they had zero wins when losing after 8th inning. Ouch.

Well, Brandon Crawford's botched DP caused them the game.

Can't be marching out your 3rd and 4th best relievers to face the heart of the Cubs order just because they pitch from the same side.

Hate seeing wife beaters celebrate.

That was gross.

Yep it's like he needed to get Lopez in for some reason

I'm sure those fans that hated him for his past when they traded for him love him now

GO CUBS WOOOHOOO. That was electrifying!

Error on the most routine play earlier did too.

With a three run lead, I'd rather give a single reliever the chance to develop some rhythm. Not easy coming into a high leverage situation in the playoffs to face one batter.

worst part about it is that now the Cubs rotation is set again

Look who's here..
