1989 NLCS, Game 1: Giants @ Cubs

San Francisco Giants 11 at Chicago Cubs 3, F — Giants first baseman Will Clark lived up to his nickname of “The Thrill,” going 4-for-4 with six RBIs as the Giants crushed the Cubs in the opener of San Francisco’s second NLCS appearance in three years. Facing 23-year-old Greg Maddux in the right-hander’s first postseason appearance, Clark launched two homers, including a massive grand slam in the fourth inning, giving the Cubs a sour start to just their second postseason trip since 1945.
