Only The Dodgers...

That picture of the scoreboard above shows something that may never happen again in my lifetime. It's only the fifth time in Major League Baseball's storied history that this has ever happened. The Dodgers won a game without getting a hit. Yeah, that's why I saved that ticket you see on the top left.

L.A.D. beat L.A.A. 1-0 after Jared Weaver pitched six hitless innings, along with Angels reliever Jose Arredondo, who blanked the Dodgers for two innings.

"It's the most bizarre game I've ever been part of," said Russell Martin.

That pretty much says it all doesn't it? The last time this happened was in 1992, and for someone like me who actually went to this game, and witnessed Dodger history, it was a night I'll never forget.

This was my first time going to a Freeway Series regular season encounter. Dodger Stadium was rocking, especially in the pavilions. Every time Angels fans would walk up to their seats in the left field pavilions, the Dodgers fans would let them have it. They couldn't walk up a flight of stairs without being booed heavily by the home crowd. The Angels fans backed them up though, clapping for their brave (or stupid) fans for flaunting their Angels love.

The atmosphere was fantastic. The best part being when a Dodgers fan ripped the hat off an Angels fan and threw it 20 rows deep.

Finally, the weirdest part of going to the game (besides getting there by the 5th inning, lousy 5 Freeway traffic!), was the helicopter circling around the stadium during the 7th inning! The flying bird had it's searchlight on, and ambulances were seen after the game, so we can only hope that no one was badly injured. What do you expect when rowdy L.A. fans get together?!

Anyways, back to the game! The Dodgers proved once again how anemic they are offensively, with their only run scoring on a Matt Kemp walk, a stolen base, throwing error on Mike Napoli (which allowed Kemp to go to third), and a sacrifice fly by Dodgers rookie Blake DeWitt.

It's fair to say that the Angels had trouble scoring this weekend as well, since they were blanked yet again by the Dodgers pitching staff. The Angels scored only one run in this series, and at one time, they were held scoreless for 20 straight innings.

I'll never forget this game...the players won't either...the coaching staff will always remember....and the fans got to see the Dodgers do something that only the Dodgers could pull off.

That's JAKked Up Dodgers!
