Giants and Braves down to the wire

Currently watching the San Francisco Giants and Atlanta Braves in the MLB (Baseball) National League Division Series. San Francisco has been in control for most of the game until the 8th with a 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the eighth the Atlanta Braves got a two run home run and took a 2-1 lead.

Is this more deflating to the Giants now than if the Braves took the lead 2 or 3 innings ago?

I know the Giants are professionals, they get paid like professionals and the expectation is that they will come back, if possible.

So the question is does the money they get paid create the attitude of a winner? Or did they have the attitude that they would win before they got the big bucks?

BTW the Giants just tied the game in the top of the 9th with two outs.

Advantage Giants? Is it the attitude, the talent, the synergy of the team or a combination of these items?
