Gloomy, sad and frustrated is how fans hanging out at the Greyhound Bar in Highland Park felt on Sunday.
The Boys in Blue's season came to a bitter end after they surrendered a 3-0 lead in the 7th inning against the San Diego Padres in Game 4 of the National League Division Series on Saturday.
The Dodgers had the bases loaded with no outs but they ultimately only came away with one run. Los Angeles went 2-for-9 with runners in scoring position on Saturday. The front office signed free agent first baseman Freddie Freeman to a six year, $162 million contract in the offseason, providing a steady bat in the heart of the lineup plus veteran leadership.
Nevertheless, the Boys in Blue looked like the team to beat all season, which makes this postseason shortcoming more painful.
