Waiting to Celebrate

It looks like the Dodgers won't need a win tonight. The Diamondbacks are down 10-3 to the Cardinals going to the bottom of the eighth. I'm sure the Los Angeles players are sitting around the clubhouse television enjoying their trip to the playoffs unfold before their eyes.

Update: The Diamondbacks fall 12-3, their run at the playoffs ending in a whimper. When they had a chance to hang with Los Angeles, they lose three in a row to St. Louis by a combined score of 23-9. After a lucky 2007 and a great start to 2008, they just couldn't maintain their offense. At the end, the bullpen went, and they could score enough runs to win. What a disappointing performance.

Congratulations to the Dodgers, NL West champs! They certainly look like the hot team going into the playoffs, and unlike the Phillies, Mets and Brewers, they get to rest and set up their rotation for the five game NLDS.

It must be all that icky green wheat grass juice Torre's been drinking this year. I wish the Dodgers nothing but failure for leaving Brooklyn. Torre piloted them into October though. G.I. Girardi couldn't lead his troops out of a year long quagmire. Hmmm.
