What a night for the Dodgers. With a 3 game lead over the Giants for the division title and a magic number of 4, the Dodgers were in trouble. Down 1-0 in the 7th, Milton Bradley lost a fly ball in the lights leading to 2 more Rockies runs. Some idiot in the upper deck threw a full beer bottle at Bradley. Bradley, not the most stable person in the world, lost it. He walked over to the foul pole yelling at the fans and ended up throwing the bottle in the first row... fortunately no one was sitting there. After being ejected, Milton continued to yell at the fans who proceeded to boo him thoroughly. After Colorado scored another run, the Dodgers found themselves down 0-4 in the bottom of the ninth. With 1 out, LA proceeded to score 5 runs and get ther 57th comeback victory of the season. For the 1st time in Dodger history (17,000+ games) The Dodgers came back from more than 4 down in the bottom of the ninth for a victory. What a win! And the Magic number is now 3.
Go LA!
