As one of the more astute sports fans you'll find, I can tell you exactly why the Dodgers just lost their second straight playoff game to the Kansas City Phillies: The Dodgers suck on the road, and need to get back to Dodger Stadium to have any chance to win this National League playoff series.
The Dodgers need home court advantage. It's a proven fact in playoff baseball lore that teams without home court advantage don't do as well as the home team. I'm no Dodger fan, but frankly, it doesn't seem fair the Phillies got to play the first two games at home.
Now the series comes back to L.A. for three games. If I'm available or the Dodgers invite me, I will attend all three games and blog from throughout each game. The Dodgers need to win all three games, in my opinion, if they have any hope of success. If they can get back to Kansas City up 3 games to 2, they'll be in good shape.
