Giants Turn to Schmidt, Destiny



Everything is in place for the Cubs to win the wild card. Their lead over San Francisco is a full game, after Chicago's 12-5 blowout of the Reds on Monday night. Their final six games are at home against Cincinnati and Atlanta, the latter who will be more concerned with preparing for the playoffs.

Yet the Cubs dropped two games to the Walking Dead of Shea Stadium over the weekend. Inexcusable at this stage of the season. On Tuesday, Greg Maddux faces Josh Hancock. Maddux has the edge in career victories, 304 to 004.

Jason Schmidt will go for San Francisco, trying to break the curse that the Padres have held over him in 2004. Against San Diego he is 1-3 with a 7.86 ERA.
