And a good break it is for the Dodgers. They finally seemed to put it all back together again last night and earned a well-deserved and much-needed victory last night. And a team effort it was, too. Martin had two home runs and three RBI, Kemp had two hits, an RBI and a stolen base, and Pierre had two hits and a couple of stolen bases. Penny pitch a solid six innings before turning it over to Proctor, Brox and Saito in the final three innings. The win exemplified the way the team was playing earlier in the season when they were winning games. Hopefully they can continue that tonight. In the words of the manager in the movie Major League 2, "We won a game yesterday. We win tonight, that's two in a row. We win tomorrow, that's called a winning streak. It has happened before."
Didn't get a chance to chime in after Tuesday night's bizarre ending. Unfortunately, the way that game ended truly exemplified how this team has played over the last three weeks. Really, it seemed like they were finding ways to lose games, rather than finding ways to win them. So hopefully, they'll avoid games like that, and use last night's win as a starting point to get some kind of long winning streak going. This team has yet to have a winning streak of more than five games all season.
