It happened again. Unbelieveable? Not really. But terribly shameful. After blowing a 7 run lead on Tuesday, the Dodgers again blew a lead to the Cubs. Yes, the Cubs; possibly the worst team in the league. J.D. Drew hit a 3 run homer (now there's something I don't get the pleasure of saying very often) to put the Dodgers up 5-2. But of course, Brett "I suck nuts" Tomko came out of the bullpen in the 7th and was shitty for the second time in as many appearances. He gave up a 3 run homer to Aramis Ramirez (sound familiar?) to give the cubs a 6-5 lead, and that's how the game ended. Fucking Brett Tomko... Please excuse me while I vomit.

So now the lead over San Diego is down to just .5 games as we head into this four game series. With the way the Padres have owned us up this year and throughout history, the future doensn't look too promising. Assuming we choke it away and lose the division lead, we'll still have the wild-card, but that'd mean the Mets in the NLDS. This is the defining series of the season right here. It's what September baseball is all about. Pressure's on, fellas. So don't suck.
