CUBS AT GIANTS – GAME FOUR OF NATIONAL LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES


San Francisco Giants Notes

THE GIANTS: Marked just the second time they have lost a postseason game when leading after 8.0 innings (also: Oct. 17, 1911 vs. Philadelphia).
        Had their streak of winning 10-consecutive postseason elimination games snapped (longest streak in postseason history).
        Had their win streak of 11-straight postseason series snapped...this streak is tied with the 1998-2001 Yankees for the longest such streak in Major League history.

MATT MOORE: Struck out a postseason career-high 10 batters and became just the 10th pitcher in Giants franchise postseason history to record double-digit strikeouts.
        Recorded just his second career RBI in the fourth inning (including regular season and postseason).
        His go-ahead hit was the first by a Giants pitcher in postseason since Hal Schumacher in the 1933 World Series.

CONOR GILLASPIE: Went 4-for-4 at the plate and became just the 15th Giant to record four hits in a postseason game (last: Pablo Sandoval on Oct. 24, 2012 – WS 1).

BRANDON CRAWFORD: Is the first Giants player to commit two errors in a postseason game since Don Mueller on Sept. 29, 1954 (WS 1).

Chicago Cubs Notes

THE CUBS: Are just second team to come back from a three-run deficit in the ninth inning to win a postseason series clincher, joining 1986 Mets (NLCS).
        Marked the third time in franchise history they have won a postseason game when trailing after 8.0 innings (last: Oct. 22, 1910 vs. Philadelphia).
        Are advancing to the NLCS in back-to-back seasons for the first time in franchise history.

WILLSON CONTRERAS: Recorded just the fourth game-tying hit in the ninth inning or later in Cubs’ postseason history, joining Kris Bryant, Sammy Sosa and Frank Chance.

DAVID ROSS:  At 39 years-old, he became the oldest catcher to homer in a postseason game and the oldest player in Cubs history to homer in a postseason game, passing Moises Alou (37 - Oct. 15, 2003 - NLCS Game 7).
