Dodgers 3, Cubs 0 Eighth inning
Lee doubles over Manny's head to lead off the eighth and he's fired up. Ramirez follows that up by striking out swinging; he's now 2-for-11 in the series. Soto pops it up. Furcal gloves it. Daryle Ward hits for Marmol. Make your plans for tomorrow night now. There's probably a few movies out you've missed, some family members you've neglected while watching these people play baseball for the last six months. Ward singles to center to knock home Lee. A run is a start and it's only 3-1. Torre's out to get Wade for that big ox Jonathan Broxton. Ronny Cedeno runs for Ward. DeRosa takes a slider for strike one. Ball one high and Cedeno helps himself to second. DeRosa swings through a breaking ball and I used to really like Tony Gwynn and now he's just kind of a hefty high-talker. DeRosa fouls off a 99 mph fastball.
Final: Dodgers 3, Cubs 1
Well, heck. The Cubs are swept out of the NLDS for the second straight year. A total embarrassment. I'm sorry I had to bring you this. I'm sorry I had to watch it. Thanks for reading all year, everyone. We really can't thank you enough. Too bad we had to end on this note, but I guess we're all used to it by now. Maybe not.
