Big day today! We found out which team stayed alive (and it wasn't the one that most thought would...) and now we will get to see a 5 game series! Oh my! This game had its ups and downs (Dodgers were doing well until Kershaw got tired and went back to his postseason form..) but it ended on a good note for Los Angeles as Jansen went back to what made him an All Star this year and the offense clicked at the right time. Since both teams have shown so much fight, they will be rewarded with an all or nothing game on Thursday! I believe the pitchers will be Scherzer (for sure) vs. Hill (speculation but I heard it on FS1!). Good luck to both teams! Clutch win for Cubs (go break that curse!) but devastating loss for Giants. Everything was great until that bullpen happened. Ugh. We'll see the Cubs again on October 15th. Here's the part where we get all somber and say goodbye to another team.
It's so sad that we have to say farewell to a dynasty that died too soon. Long live Connor Gillaspie for his spectacular feats in this postseason. We hope that he will still have a special place at AT & T park because he deserves it more than anyone else. Matt Moore also deserves some love too because he turned out to be a great surprise for the Giants. For a team that struggled so much in the second half, they transformed in the postseason. They were much different on offense and that was why they deserved to be there. We will miss the heart of the Giants, we will miss Madison Bumgarner in the postseason because no one compares to him, we will miss everything about this team. So sad to see them go. Leave a Reply. |
