Post-Game 8 Thread: And A Kendrick Walkoff Tonight Makes Two In A Row

DODGERS 6, MARINERS 5

This time, it didn't take extras. But the storyline was the same as last night (not to mention an identical final score): new Dodgers pitcher gives up early HRs, including to Nelson Cruz (1-for-3, with HRs in four straight games); and Alex Guerrero has a big hit to start the comeback (two-run PH HR in the fourth to make it 4-3 Seattle).

But the hero tonight was Howie Kendrick, whose one-out bases-loaded single scored Jimmy Rollins from third, with Carl Crawford beating the throw from rightfielder (and I use that loosely, since he should be a DH) Cruz, to win the game in walkoff fashion (Kendrick's sixth career walkoff and first with the Dodgers).
