0-0 in the third so far. I just turned it on.

Hoping the Pirates win.

After yesterday's game this game is so anticlimactic ....7-0 now, barring a comeback of epic proportions this one is over....

Wow, dominating. 4 hit shutout, 10 k, 1 walk.

I think people had written off the Giants a little too soon - surprised still that the Pirates didn't skip cole's start on Sunday and have him pitch this one. They probably thought the Giants would be a cakewalk.

Giants are dangerous. After winning it all in 10 and 12, they have a lot of confidence and playoff experience going into the playoffs. Bumgarner is dominating, and his complete game shutout gave their bullpen some more rest. I'm still pulling for the Nats though.

I think it was the opposite. They figured if there was a chance to avoid the WC game they had to give it their best shot.
I think it's safe to say that Bumgarner is one of the elite pitchers in the game. I don't think anyone would underestimate that.
