Final  Giants 15-4.  Caleb Baragar earned a save by pitching the final three innings.

You know things are bad when Ross uses Maples.

As of end of 4th inning today, Happ and Contreras have identical OPS for the season (.741).

Happ in the strangest stretch of his career. He's about as streaky as any player but those streaks always come with two things: walks and K's. His OPS in September is now about 1.300 but he walked for the first time in that period tonight. He's .514 BABIP.

A string of late-inning doubles to left giving McCutchen a workout; Cubs extend their lead to 6-3.

Nance gets through his inning unscathed and makes a nice cover of first on a ball that Schwindel can't get to but is grabbed by second baseman Bote, for an unusual 4-1 groundout.

Effross -- let's let him hit when his turn comes up; he got a nice sac fly his last at-bat -- is in to pitch the eighth and strikes Harper out.

Chirinos is in to hit for Effross, and he pops to Gregorius at short.

Ortega and then The Tank; let's get some insurance.

Wick closes it out striking Galvis out on a high fastball and the Cubs win!

(If we can go 15-2 the rest of the way, we'll break even for the season.)

Hard to see any scenario where Wick isn’t the closer next April if he breaks camp healthy.

With the Phillies leading 4-2 in the eighth (and, according to Yahoo, having 1:14 odds to go on to win the game), Happ gets hit with a pitch and Chirinos hits a homer to tie the game!
