Fresh off the All Star break the Boys in Blue headed up to the dump by the bay for 3 games with everyone's favorite team of AARP losers, the SF Giants and Barroid Bonds. I was certain Bonds would get all 5 HRs he needed to pass Aaron off us this weekend because we are usually dumb enough to pitch him, he rapes teams that pitch to him and he hates LA. What really happened? Bonds went 0 for the series!!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA (He played in all 3 games too!)
Man he looked old and crappy. Go get some of the new "clear" if you are ever going to get those next 5. Another guy that is starting to show his age, Kent. Outside of the bomb he crushed on Saturday, he looks like he is approaching 50 and fast. No more range in the field, a slow bat, this does not bode well.
As for the series, we exploded for 6 runs in the 9th on Friday to beat SF. On Saturday, we had a nice lead until Randy Winn did a Gibson impersonation by getting nailed in the leg, hobbling around, then blasting a Grand Slam to get SF within 1. In the 9th Bonds walked to get on and eventually scored. In extras though, LA prevailed and Rudy Gascaneaez nailed down a save (I thought I was high - no way did this happen). Finally on Sunday we had Brett Tomkrapp on the mound which meant me, my brother and every other Dodger fan expected a loss. It even prompted my brother to state that if, "Tomko gets a win today, I'll say nothing but positive things about the team for the next month."
Sure enough, we lead 1-0, only to have the WORST infield defense in baseball this year help Tomko give back 2 and give SF hope. In the 4th and 6th we added 2 runs an inning and hung on to win 5-3 meaning a SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP, 11 in a row for us in SF, an ANGRY Barry, 1st Place all to ourselves and one month of my brother being pleasant!!!! OUTSTANDING!
Next up, we get a chance to give Philly losses 10,001, 10,002, and 10,003!
