San Francisco GiantsvsChicago Cubs
SF 2/CHC 3
Things to say
Cubs walked it off 3-2 over the Giants in 10 at Wrigley.
01
opener
Cubs got the Giants in extras at Wrigley. Three-two in ten. Place was rocking by the end.
02
key player
Whoever came up in the tenth for Chicago earned his paycheck — one swing, ballgame over, that's all you need on a getaway day.
03
hot take
San Francisco's bullpen is cooked. You don't blow a tie game in the tenth at Wrigley and walk out feeling good about June.
04
deep cut
Giants are 26-39 now. That's not a slump, that's the standings telling you who they are.
05
exit
Anyway — Cubs are climbing back over .500, let's see if they can stack a couple before the weekend's out.
The recap
Cubs walked it off in the tenth to edge the Giants 3-2 at Wrigley, classic getaway-day baseball where nobody could break it open through nine. Both bullpens traded zeros down the stretch, and you could feel the manager sweating every matchup once the starters were out.
With the ghost runner on second in extras, Chicago just needed one clean piece of contact and they got it. Giants drop to 26-39 and this one's gonna sting on the flight home.
