Let's recap what the Blue accomplished this past weekend:
- First four-game sweep ever of the Padres at Dodger Stadium
- Improved to 10-0 at home, a new franchise record to start a season, tying the NL record
- Are three home wins away - without a loss - from setting the modern Major League record for home wins to start a season at 13
- Are a Major League-best 33-9 at home since the All-Star Break last season
- Chad Billingsley improved to 5-0 to start the season; his era is 2.21
- Improved to 18-8 overall this season, best record in the Majors, and best team start since 1984
- Have scored an NL-best 141 runs and have the best run differential in the Majors at +41
Lost in the mix of yesterday's win was the fact the Dodgers scored seven runs yesterday without Manny, Casey Blake, Russell Martin and Rafael Furcal, who were all given a day off.
Next up: Arizona for two starting tonight at the Ravine, then Washington for two. More history-in-the-making this week? Stay tuned...
