Dodgers Strike Back!
Tonight was a very eventful evening. I was able to spend the evening with my father and two friends. TR and Randy were able to join us for the game tonight, very delightful company.
As the game was progressing, we [Dodgers] finally started scoring in the third inning against the Atlanta Braves. We pulled up with a 2-0 winning score going into the 8th inning. One batter comes up for the Braves, gets a single; think nothing of it? Wrong. Another batter and another, soon enough the Braves have bases loaded and 2 outs. The next thing we know, a home run is hit with bases loaded so that brings the score to 2-4 in favor of the Braves. After a few pitcher changes and talks from the manager, the Dodgers are able to pull out of the inning with the score 2-4. Next the Dodgers are up to bat. We swing at a couple and get some men on bases. Before long, we have the bases loaded as well. Milton Bradley got up to bat. With a full count, he also swings for a home run and gets it! We too got a grand slam in the bottom of the 8th inning. That’s right, two grand slams in the same inning, one by each team. This wasn’t it though for the 8th inning. With 3 more batters that came up, we ended up scoring again to make the score 7-4 in favor of the Dodgers.
With the game finally coming to an end, we won the game 7-4. It was quite an amazing game and I am very glad I was able to attend. It was a good evening.
