. Just as in the Wild Card game, both starting pitchers lived up to the billing, and dominated the opposing team's lineup. Also as in that game, the Giants had slightly more opportunities to score in the early innings, but were unable to take advantage of them. The Giants had the leadoff man on base in each of the first three innings, but the Cubs, with the help of a caught stealing and a successful pickoff play at first base were able to wipe the runners off base quickly. Lester seemed to improve as the game went on, and the Giants found it difficult to have extended at bats against him. After 8 dominant innings in which he made just 86 pitches, Lester looked set to come out of the game, as his spot in the lineup along with the spot of his catcher David Ross were due up, and it looked as though Cubs manager
