For the Want of a Nail II
The Giants ended up winning this game 6-4. The Dodgers chipped away on the 3-run lead until the score was 5-4. Then the Giants scored one in the top of the ninth off closer Eric Gagne, who was pitching in a non-save situation and failed to keep the one-run deficit. Three Dodger relievers held the Giants scoreless for 6-1/3, but the missed opportunity in the second might have been their death knell. We'll never know. But I bet Jim Tracy is kicking himself over it today.
