The Dodgers finished the season 22 games over 500, leading the National League in Home Runs.

22 games isn't the greatest, but damn I can hardly remember the last time they led the National League in HRs. Sometime in the 80s I think.

Oh yeah, and Clayton Kershaw finished with 300 K's, first time a pitcher in MLB has done that since 2002.

Way to go Donnie Baseball!

Although my hatred for Arte Moreno is growing deeper by the day.

It's damn fine theater when both the Dodgers and Giants are well-staffed and healthy. We had some good games this year.

I love L.A. but not the Dodgers (posted with full respect for #respecttherivalry BTW).

See you in 2016.
