That was my biggest concern with the Giants in this series - lack of a shutdown reliever. Bochy didn't help matters that inning though and Crawford not turning double play may be the difference in the game. Have to execute in the playoffs, there is very little margin for error.

Thought Crawford coulda made the play on Bryant's single too. And he gave them a run earlier in the game on the Baez error

Giants bullpen converted 43 saves in 2016. They blew 32 saves. That's unbelievable for a playoff team.

What's unbelievable is Bochy using five f***ing relievers in a single inning with a sizable lead. He got too f***ing cute and blew an amazing opportunity to knock the Cubs out of the playoffs.

But, in theory, he was playing the BEST matchups, the odds of NONE of them working out is kind of crazy.

With a three run lead, I'd rather give a single reliever the chance to develop some rhythm. Not easy coming into a high leverage situation in the playoffs to face one batter.
