Well when you make Zambrano get 6 outs in the 2nd inning there's not much more your pitcher can do.

I presume the Cubs will win game 3 with Harden (who I believe to be the best pitcher in baseball when 100%) on the the mound. Then drop game 4. But who knows. The way the Dodgers have been hitting and pitching if Manny can produce a 2-3 runs that may be enough to win because the Cubs can't hit anything right now.

The playoffs are more than just pitching (Maybe not much more). Torre deserves a ton of credit for being aggressive early with the hit and run trying to produce runs.
