Hall of Famer
Kapler lost this in the top of the 8th.
Also, manufacturing a run instead of letting Duggar hack away and strike out would’ve been better. I was saying that before he whiffed on strike three. Padres would’ve had the bottom of their order this time. You’re just trying to get over to the next one when you’re down 1. The chances of a multiple run big inning vs their closer is low. The computer should say that. Get the runner to third with one out. Bochy would’ve done that and Bochy would’ve won.
“The computer” doesn’t necessarily have as good as postseason success as “the gut”. This was a postseason style game. Giants played it like another game in my view.
