The Pittsburgh Pirates

Deep down I would like to see the Pittsburgh Pirates do well. Maybe even win the National League East. I just don't want them to do it at the Dodgers expense. Former Dodger pitcher James McDonald is having a strong season. The Dodgers have looked good in the first two games, 5-4 and 11-0 Dodger victories. Shane Victorino is finally starting to get hot, driving in three in the first game including his first homerun as a Dodger. He is the leadoff hitter the Dodgers have been missing all season. Chad Billingsley pitched 8 solid innings and won his 5th straight decision. The Dodgers only got one extra base hit in the 11-0 victory, a two-run double by Hanley Ramirez. Clayton Kershaw goes to the mound in game #3.
