Dodgers Rediscover The Right Formula

The Dodgers won a pair of games over the weekend like they did when they were the best team in baseball. Good bullpen holds the other team and offense unloads for a bunch of runs, or just enough to win in extra innings, with a different hero every night. Sunday’s was Juan Castro.
The cynic says, “It’s only the Reds,” the last team that the Dodgers swept and a team they usually own. If you’re supposed to win a game, does it take the fun out of it? I hope not.
Lost in Sunday’s game may have been Clayton Kershaw’s performance. If the Dodgers had managed to score three or four runs for him, we’d be talking about how he has been unhittable. But because he left with a Randy Wolf-like no decision, the night belonged to the bullpen.
Oh, and just let me say this:
Ronnie Belliard?
--- John Rosenthal.
