I Can't Wait To Get On The Road Again

I had to borrow from the lyrics of music icon Willie Nelson as the Dodgers won their 10th straight road game, their most since 1954, and two shy of the franchise record of 12 in a row set in 1924. They beat the Toronto Blue Jays last night 8-3 in 10 innings as Mark Ellis hit his 5th homerun, a two run homer in the top of the 10th and Yasiel Puig followed with his 9th homerun. The Dodgers tacked on two more runs on an Andre Ethier double to win going away. Ethier had 4 hits and Puig 3 to lead the Dodgers offense. Brandon League (5-3) got the win for the second game in a row. I hate to see the Dodgers leave Toronto. They scored 32 runs in 3 games and the ball seemed to jump out of the Rogers Centre. The Dodgers won the final two games in come from behind fashion.
