Sweep

The Dodgers sweep the first place Phils. (Ex-first place Phils) You're welcome, Mets fans. For such a weak division the West leader sure put it to the East leader. Mostly due to the Dodger's league-leading ERA. No thanks to Brad Penny's performance Wednesday night. He must still have been hurt, though, for I see he is back on the Disabled List this morning for his shoulder.

This series is just what the team needed after the last two games in SF where the blew late leads. To think where they'd be right now if they could have held on in those two games against the hated Giants. As a Dodger fan I understand the history. Both teams seem to upset the other at crucial times.

Random thought: What goes through a Cub fan's mind when they throw a perfectly sound baseball back on the field of play when an opposing batter clubs a home run against them? Do they think that changes the fact? Do they just shallowly want to show their disdain for the opposition? Or, perhaps they are all mindless followers susceptible to heavy peer pressure? I hope the Cubs never win another World Series.
