I've seen this act before.
The Dodgers in the NLCS - are the Lakers in the NBA Finals.
After losing the opening two game in Philadelphia, Joe Torre's team was in the same position as the Lakers in the Finals against Boston.
They had to win the middle three games at home.
Just like Kobe and company - the Dodgers lost a game they should have won - in the middle game!
It's easy to blame Joe Torre. It's easy to blame relievers Cory Wade and Jonathan Broxton - as both gave up 2-run homers in the 8th inning.
I called NASA today - and they're still tracking the home run hit by Matt Stairs. A man thats played for 11-teams in 15-years.
But here's something new - give Philadelphia credit.
It's hard for Dodger fans to see the truth - Philadelphia is a better team.
They've been a better team ALL season.
That said, as the Angels will tell you - the better team doesn't always win.
