Growing up in SoCal, I was a Dodgers and Angels fan so I rooted for them. The Kirk Gibson home run is one of my finest memories in sports. But baseball has changed so much since then that I can't stomach seeing them win or any large market team.
That's another problem this team has. Even if the offense comes along, we have Peralta, Priester, and who else in our starting rotation? How many bullpen games can this team play to the World Series title?
Do they really celebrate those things too? Name another sport where teams celebrate anything short of a Finals berth. One of the most ridiculous things in sports, and I'm not surprised it happens in baseball.
18-19 since win #14 in a row. It's not just a rough patch. You wonder where this team would be if not for an astronomically unlikely tear for two months.
