Hello to those of you still awake. As you may know, this game started at 9:15pm Central. I am currently fighting a losing battle with my eyelids to stay open. So, with that being said, this recap is going to go quick. Try to keep up, kiddos.

Madison Bumgarner was originally scheduled to start Thursday night's game, but the he was struck ill with a flu. To be honest, I thought he was still recovering for that four-wheeler accident or whatever it was his did - had no idea he was back. ANYWAY, filling in for him was Matt Cain.
