Giants 5, Cubs 4: ‘A day late and a dollar short’
Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty ImagesGive this Cubs team some credit. Down 5-1 entering the ninth inning, they put together a nice rally and had the tying run in scoring position with two out. Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough when Ian Happ grounded out to end the game, and instead of a stirring come-from-behind win, the Cubs simply had another defeat, 5-4 to the Giants. The loss dropped their record in one-run games to 13-19 and they are 0-47 when trailing entering the ninth.
Sigh.
