That’s a big “but.” The Cubs led the third game 11-7 after seven innings, but the D-backs scored a run off each of four different Cubs relievers to win the game in 10 innings, 12-11.
Let’s hope the Cubs are done with bad bullpen work like that.

The D-backs might be forgiven for not wanting the first half to end.
