Giants vs. Cubs: Game 1 Thread

San Francisco Giants (24-26) @ Chicago Cubs (25-21)


Derek Holland (2-5, 4.94) vs. Kyle Hendricks (3-3, 3.40)

First series between the Cubs and the Giants this year. Cubs looking to snap worst two-gam stretch of season. Zobrist leading off (which he has excelled at lately).

M1 — Cubs strike first. Zobrist with more leadoff magic. Single followed by Almora single. Rare passed ball by Posey puts them on 2nd & 3rd. Cubs only able to score 1, though, on a Rizzo single. Almora left stranded.

M1 || Giants 0, Cubs 1

M2 — Dominance from The Professor so far. 3 up, 3 down in both innings so far. Only took him 9 pitches to get out of top of 2nd.

T4 — Gorkys Hernandez takes Hendricks deep for 1st run for Giants. Bad luck for Hendricks. 1st hit given up & probably 1st bad pitch.

M7 — A couple of great defensive plays for Cubs in the top of 7th. Zobrist makes leaping grab in front of wall in right, & Bryant lays out for hard-hit grounder. Another good inning for Hendricks, & this game continues to fly by. 7th-inning stretch less than 2 hours in.

B7 — 2-run double for Zobrist. Amazing how clutch he has been in games where he hit leadoff this season. Giants probably shouldn't have been so quick to yank Holland.

B7 — Bryant blows the game wide open with clutch 2-out, 2-run hit. Cubs up by 4. Chicago had left six men on prior to that. Good for a team struggling at the plate earlier in the week to have a big inning like that.

It was a solid win, but San Francisco's bullpen completely blew it for them. Báez needs to start working on taking his pitches better as well, as he currently has an OBP lower than .300, which is kind of concerning. Still, awesome game. Rizzo was great out there even though Holland has some control issues, and Bryant and Zobrist were very clutch.

I didn't realize Baez had that low of an on-base percentage. That's pretty bad. I guess if you don't walk ever, it can happen.
