I would be inclined to say that, regardless of the result of this two-game series with the San Francisco Giants, we can count out the Giants for the play-offs.
That statement is not bold at all. Take a look at the remaining schedule of the Giants and you see 7 games against the Dodgers and 3 against the Padres. You tell me which Wild Card contender would survive that Hamburger Hill. It is not a wild statement to think that even the Padres might overtake the Giants in the standings, since San Diego is playing Giants, Rockies, Cardinals and White Sox in the remaining games of the season.
