Dodgers Beat Cardinals in Game 5 to Extend #NLCS

I caught the last 1 and 1/2 innings. Turns out Dodgers' bats got hot. Let's see if they can keep hope alive this weekend.

At LAT, "Dodgers take the solo route to stay alive with 6-4 Game 5 victory."

Seems the Dodgers want to keep playing.

Using the sudden power of the solo home run and a terrific turnaround pitching performance from Zack Greinke, the Dodgers lived to fight another day with their 6-4 victory Wednesday afternoon over the Cardinals in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series.

The victory staved off elimination, but still leaving the Cardinals up three games to two in the best-of-seven series.

After taking a day off Thursday, the series is scheduled to resume Friday with Game 6 in St. Louis.

The score was tied 2-2 when the Dodgers suddenly discovered their new love affair with the solo home run.

Clayton Kershaw will start Game 6. I think the Dodgers have a pretty good chance. Kershaw's the best in the majors.
