this may be the blue wave that sends us dumped into the ocean.
So... about that...
I do get the pre-game pessimism. The team's track record against the Dodgers had been poor, both in the regular season and the one and only time we faced them in the playoffs. But - and I freely admit this may be hindsight talking - it felt different going into last night. This Dodgers team, despite winning 100 games again, did not feel like a juggernaut. Outside of that insane 24-4 spell in August, and our own 5-21 spell a little earlier, the teams weren't that far apart.
