Like their final regular season game, Drew and his Dodgers
teammates didn't seem to have their hearts into their first playoff game. Though
they had earned the #4 seed and the right to face the #5 seed Cardinals, they
never appeared to be the stronger team today. The entire team struggled to get
good contact with the ball while batting, and while they fielded their positions
well they were unable to get the key outs needed to prevent the Cardinals from
walking away with a 9-2 victory, ending the Dodgers season. While it didn't end
the way anyone wanted it to, it was a productive season overall with lots of
kids playing their first season at the minor league level. Next year should be a
season to remember!
