The Diamondbacks start their three game series against the Dodgers tonight. If history is any indication, runs should be at a premium (unless of course Brandon Webb and Dan Haren continue their awful pitching). KTAR's Dave Burns said the Dodgers are like that defensive end who has been chasing the quarterback all game, and that they will finally catch the D'backs over the weekend. That's a pretty good analogy, but I think the D'backs find some way to keep the lead in the NL West past this weekend. Even if they lose 2 of 3 they'll still have a half game lead and the Dodgers will find some way to blow it down the stretch. As much as the Diamondbacks have had their ups and downs, LA has been even worse. Nobody seems to want to be in first, it's like watching people line up for "The Rocker". Why they would line up for a horrible movie I have no idea, but the point is still valid.
