Why are you sad? Your team didn’t make into the playoffs?

Cubs won’t make NLCS. They shot their wad on the regular season and are on coast now. That won’t get it

Yup!

Bumgarner vs. Syndergaard matchup tonight should be a good one!

Hunter Pence blew it big time striking out with the bases loaded. Still 0-0.

Bumgarner has now pitched 22 innings in post-season elimination games without giving up a run.

Well, it appears the Giants are headed to Chicago.

With bells on.

A couple of observations.

First, tonight was a good example of why I think a pitcher that makes hitters hit dribblers and pop-ups, like Bumgarner tonight often with just one or two pitches per hitter, is probably more valuable than strikeout kings because their pitch count is lower and go longer into a game than strikeout guys like Syndergaard who probably average more like 7-8 pitches per hitter and leave early like tonight.

Second, I’m concerned about the Giant’s pitching against the Cubs’ top-rated pitching. Seems like we hardly have three good starters and our once highly esteemed bullpen seems anemic. If Bumgarner were fresh for Friday’s start I’d feel better but I think the Giants face real challenges here.
