Big Z gives a HUGE assist to the Giants playoff hopes with this gem. Giants and Pads now go down the stretch even up in games played and the Pads one back. If the Giants can push the lead to +2 games before the Pads come to town, they will be tough to sweep.
At that point, a one-game playoff scenario comes off the table as well. As it does if the two teams enter the series tied. Playing that extra "playoff game to get into the playoffs" would be a huge setback for the team that advances.

Zambrano won his seventh straight decision since rejoining Chicago's rotation, combining with two relievers on a four-hitter, and the Cubs held on to beat San Diego 1-0 on Monday night to knock the Padres out of the NL wild-card lead.
