Epic. Unreal. Instant classic.
Label it what you want, but these San Francisco Giants won’t die. And the stakes will be higher for Game 4 on Tuesday.
Here’s what Twitter had to say in the aftermath of it all.
Cats have nine lives. The Giants have 10. This is their 10th consecutive elimination win.

What a game. One of the greatest Giants games I've ever seen. And there have been many.

Joe Panik walks it off, Giants win 6-5. There will be a Game 4. That was Peak Torture and Peak Even Year BS.

Pretty sure that Panik takes the Vallejo Ferry and really needed to end this game. #SFGiants

So Conor Gillaspie has saved our season twice now after not making the Opening Day roster. I love baseball. #SFGiants #BeliEVEN

The Giants just sent up three lefties against Aroldis Chapman, and all of them reached.

Bye, bye Chapman! (The Cubs fan in front of me was not happy.) #beliEVEN pic.twitter.com/CFF7h9V0FY

Pardon my language…but Conor fucking Gillaspie
— Dave Flemming (@FlemmingDave) October 11, 2016
Conor Gillaspie: .203 in his career vs. LHP. Aroldis Chapman: .122 vs. LHB. Odds of hit there: Low. Postseason baseball is the best.

Gillaspie is Latin for Holy Fucking Shitballs

The #Giants have walked off the #Cubs in the 13th, and you have to believe every Cubs fan is nervous. #EvenYear

Conor Freaking Gillaspie. My kids will not longer will batting gloves.
— Jim Rome (@jimrome) October 11, 2016
RBIs by Conor Gillaspie against lefthanded pitchers during the regular season: Zero! And he just turned around a 102-mph Aroldis-ball. Wow

Conor Gillaspie 2.0 might be even better than 1.0.
— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) October 11, 2016
Somewhere along the line Conor Gillaspie turned into an excellent third baseman. #sfgiants
