Molina got his money's worth in that start. He extends the game time by an hour all by himself with his constant trips to the mound. They need to teach him to call signals with his fingers so that there isn't that whole language barrier thing.

Is there some unwritten rule that states every team that plays the Yankees must become dumber and just throw the ball around the field to no one in particular?

The announcers we're laughing at the dodgers in the post game show.

They should after losing 11-0. It was a bad performance but they got in a deep hole early and hopefully they can come out better against Joe Blanton.

After watching the joke that is the Titans this year, I am just happy that one of my teams sniffed the post season. I would prefer to keep going but I have been very happy with the Dodgers overall.

Girardi overmanged that game. Robertson has been lights out and you take him out for another righty? Makes no sense...

I completely am drawing a blank on why Billingsley is not in the playoff rotation? Please fill me in...

After watching Kuroda last night it seems odd that he is not starting. I guess they weren't expecting that performance last night or Billingsley would have started. As for the rest of the rotation, everyone else is pitching better right now.

He will be good but not quite there yet.

I officially hate the Phillies more than the Giants. I hope the Yankees sweep them and wipe the little smirk off Victorino's face. :)

Seriously, the Dodgers had a great year and I do believe this series is over now. Hopefully, next season, they'll address a few things to get them over the hump.

It doesn't look promising with the team owners going through a divorce.

Also, if Joe Torre really is done after next season I would love to see Don Mattingly get a shot as his replacement.

Are you people seeing this umpiring tonight? First, Swisher clearly gets picked off second base by a mile, yet the umpire looking right at it calls him safe. Later in the same inning, the third base umpire, who wasn't even looking at Swisher when he tagged up on a fly ball, said Swisher left the base early when the Angels appealed.

Those two evened out since Swisher should've been out at second base, but goodness.
