Thanks for the Support

So last night was a crazy game even though it didn't mean anything. The Dodgers still went out there and put their hearts on the line and came out on top. Beating the Giants 5-1 and taking the series 2-1.

The atmosphere was insane at the stadium last night. There was no pressure even the fans knew that the game was just for fun, but that did not stop them from screaming and chanting for their favorite players. The famous "Cruuuuuuuz" chant echo'd I don't know how many times showing him that he has won the respect of his fans. There was also the always present chant of "Giants suck" that comes alive when ever the Giants are in town.

I asked one Giants fan who wanted to remain anonymous what he thought about the game and his response was, "It was a good game but the best part about this series is that it was one of my favorite things to see, Dodgers miss the playoffs". Now he was technically referring to how the the Dodgers had lost the night before which meant that they lost their chances of making the playoffs and that their season was now over.


After the game was over something pretty cool had happened. Andre Either and Adrian Gonzalez came out and thanked the crowd and all of their fans for supporting them through out the season.

All we do is WIN!

So, yesterday i posted about how the Dodgers need a win last night in order to help their dreams of making it to the post season alive. Well guess what? They did it so post season can still happen with the Cardinals losing last night and the Dodgers winning that makes them only 3.5 games back of the wild card now.

Dodgers will play tonight as the Cardinals have the day off. If the Dodgers take the W tonight that would clear up the 0.5 game different and make them only 3 back of the Cardinals.

The race for post season is getting really slim and crazy anything can happen all we can do is sit back cheer on our teams and hope that they can pull through. :)

What are the Dodgers chances of making it to the post season this year? I want to hear from you!

Can we do it?

So if you follow baseball at all you would know that the last month (September) is one of the most crucial. It is where dreams come true but are also shattered. It is in that last month where it is determined  who will make it to the play off and later to the World Series. For several teams their fate is already determined and they already have their spots in the play off's set but for others they are in the heat of a battle to clinch that last Wild Card spot which then will allow their dreams to continue.

Dodgers find themselves in that spot. They are 4.5 games back of the Cardinals with only 7 games left to play. Now this puts them in a really tight spot but it is not impossible they can still pull it off, but it is going to take a lot for them to do so.

The talent to win is there, they just need to find it in themselves to get their pitching and hitting in sync and they could be a very powerful team. As Dodger fans we can not give up hope, got to keep our faith in them because anything can happen on any given day!

Today they will play game 2 out of a 3 game series with the Padres where they will be looking for that win.
