Well, Bud tries to screw things up, but the two best teams in the NL take care of business and make it a moot point.

That was fun. When it was 4-0, while you never chalk one up, there never was a feeling of being threatened. The five run rally to make it a laugher is deserving payback for the cheering of Cueto's injury last night.

And I'm not done with the Giants fans yet. They're towel waving for a reliever pitching in the 9th of a 9-0 game and continued it in the bottom of the 9th? Have they been studying Cubs' fans?

Joey's 2nd hit was a good sign, ball got deep, late in the count and he stings it into left field.

Ludwick's homer was huge to say "here we go again boys, we're going home 2-0."

Finally, you know your bullpen is deep when you're bringing in an arm like Hoover to mop up. I hope that will pay dividends throughout the postseason, we might need him to get an out or two, or give us an inning at some point. Arredondo was in the only time I want to see him--with a 9 run lead.
