Sure, we'll take them but notice what the Cubs did in the 8th? 2 2-run
HRs...BOOM...in the blink of an eye, 4 runs. Being able to do that
increases your chances of winning games.
If the Giants had lost this game those 4 runs in the 8th via the pair of
2 run HRs would have made it even more humiliating. In other words, the
Giants would have gotten screwed by the type of hit they can't seem to get.
