The Giants have a few more wins under their belt than the Cubs. They did not necessarily perform badly throughout the season, but they just didn't play well enough. They could not compete with the likes of the LA Dodgers and the San Diego Padres, who are first and second, respectively.
The Giants are now looking to finish the season with more wins and come back stronger next season.
While this series does not hold any significance with respect to the playoffs, a win is still a win. Both teams will be battling it out in the third and final encounter. They still need to play for the fans who always come in huge numbers to support their teams. This is a great game for the neutrals to follow.
