SAN FRANCISCO -- Bruce Bochy has often been bleary-eyed and exhausted going through it all this year. His once-reliable bullpen hit bump after bump and an offense that appeared so powerful way back in spring training regularly faltered when it mattered most.The Giants had the majors best record at the All-Star break but couldnt sustain it. They earned the second wild card on the seasons final day, beat the defending NL champion New York Mets then lost to baseballs hottest team Tuesday night in a four-game NL Division Series -- the 103-win Chicago Cubs.That even-year rallying cry for this club, its gone. Also gone is the remarkable 10-game winning streak in postseason elimination games, an 11-series playoff unbeaten run stopped in the process for a franchise that captured World Series championships in 2010, 12 and `14.The Cubs were too good. The Giants were too inconsistent.Its a tale of two seasons, the first half and second half, Bochy said. But I think what Ill remember is how they really bounced back and found a way to get in there, to get to the wild card and that game.Yes, this ranked among the most trying seasons yet for the 61-year-old Bochy, who completed his 10th year as San Francisco skipper and 22nd overall as a manager after having guided San Diego for the other 12. Bochy faced constant scrutiny for his clubs second-half struggles after holding the majors best record at the All-Star break (57-33).Here are some things to consider from a season that fell short:SOLID ROTATIONSan Franciscos top starters did their part, and thats a positive for Bochy going forward when he looks at his trio of aces: Madison Bumgarner, Johnny Cueto and Jeff Samardzija. Trade deadline acquisition Matt Moore dazzled for eight innings in Tuesdays Game 4, striking out 10 and hitting a go-ahead single in the fourth.Rookie Ty Blach showed he will be considered for a rotation spot in 2017, earning the win with two scoreless innings in San Franciscos 6-5, 13-inning victory Monday night to stave off elimination for a day.BULLPEN BLUNDERSJavier Lopez owns four World Series rings, three with the Giants, while Santiago Casilla and Sergio Romo have three apiece.A bullpen that was so good for so long during all the title runs failed to hold a 5-2 lead in the ninth inning, with five relievers unable to end it. Bochy never turned to demoted closer Casilla and Romo couldnt finish off Chicago.The flame-throwing Aroldis Chapman, whom San Francisco tried to acquire at the trade deadline, closed out the Giants this time after giving up the game a night earlier.Now, San Francisco will almost certainly go forward with new faces -- Derek Law, Steven Okert, Will Smith.The job doesnt change. You gotta get outs. I wasnt able to do that today, Romo said. They showed that theyll never give up either there at the end. For us were more in shock that just it happened, how it happened, the way it happened. We went in, pretty decent lead going in that ninth. It looked pretty good in our favor to win tonight.GILLASPIES MARKConor Gillaspie arrived at spring training with no guarantees, just a determination to be a better teammate and person in his second stint with San Francisco. He claimed he had grown up in his three years away, then he broke out on the big October stage as an unlikely postseason star.He hit a three-run homer in the ninth inning of a 3-0 wild-card win at New York last week. His catch over the railing and into the photo well in Game 162 against the Dodgers will be remembered, too. Vin Scully called it superior in his final broadcast.Gillaspie was an injury replacement to boot.INJURIESThe Giants missed two key regulars in the final two games of the series. Left fielder Angel Pagan, wrapping up a $40 million, four-year contract, sat out with back spasms and third baseman Eduardo Nunez to a strained right hamstring.NO COMEBACKIn the end, the every-other-year Giants couldnt pull off the very kind of improbable comeback that defined their championship runs in recent seasons. In 2012 against Cincinnati, the club became the first ever to rally from an 0-2 deficit in a best-of-five series by winning three straight road games. San Francisco also overcame a 3-1 deficit in the NLCS that year against St. Louis.San Francisco had been nearly unbeatable with the season on the line in recent years, namely winning those 10 straight elimination games.Its crazy good, Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. It just doesnt happen, thats so difficult to do. Roshe Two Womens .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back.

It was hard for Luck to pull off another comeback, or even get into the end zone, while standing on the sideline. Rivers threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to rookie Keenan Allen and Nick Novak kicked four field goals to give the Chargers a 19-9 victory against the Colts on Monday night. Roshe One Sale . With Parker having a quiet game for once, Nicolas Batum and Boris Diaw provided the scoring as France won its first major basketball title by beating Lithuania 80-66 on Sunday. It was a victory that ended a decade of frustration for Parker and a talented French generation, which lost the final against Spain two years ago and took bronze in 2005. NC State wide receiver Jumichael Ramos will redshirt the 2016 season following knee surgery performed earlier this month, coach Dave Doeren announced Wednesday.If J-Mike had tried to play, he would have had to deal with nagging injury all season and not be able to play to the level that he is capable of playing, Doeren said.
