SAN FRANCISCO — The epitaph on the San Francisco Giants’ season, which became clear as the regular season elapsed, could be etched in stone Tuesday. The team’s bullpen was helpless, in every sense of the word.

Meanwhile, the opportunistic Chicago Cubs were all too eager to capitalize. They rallied for four ninth-inning runs against four Giants relievers to secure a 6-5 victory in Game 4 of the National League Division Series. The Cubs captured the best-of-five showdown, 3-1, and advanced to a meeting in the NL Championship Series against the winner of the Dodgers-Nationals NL Division Series.
