That's all she wrote.
For the second consecutive season, the Dodgers season was ended by the Phillies in game five of the NLCS.
The game looked as if it would be a back and forth game in the first four to five innings, but the Phillies made it very clear that they were hell-bent on getting back to the World Series to defend their title.
As disappointing as the loss is, Dodger fans have no reason to be ashamed. The Dodgers were simply beat by the better team, and with the way they played, did not deserve to represent the National League in the World Series.
There are many positives to take out from this season. One is that Clayton Kershaw showed that he has all the tools to be an ace in the league. While another, and this is the biggest one, the Dodgers behind Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier showed that the Dodgers don't need to rely on Manny Ramirez.
This team will be a force to be reckoned with next season and in future seasons. The off-season will sure be interesting, but I will give my thoughts on that in the near future.
Congratulations to the Philadelphia Phillies. They played like champions. I wish them the best of luck in the World Series.
