It's Getting CLoser

The Padres are sticking it to the Diamondbacks this week, winning the first three of a four-game series.  How does that impact the Dodgers?  I'm glad you asked.  We'd have preferred it if Arizona had done the winning, since the Dodgers were closer in the Wild Card than they were in the West.  But, as long as the Dodgers keep winning and one of those two teams keep losing, things keep looking brighter for the Dodgers.  Now that Arizona and San Diego are tied atop both leaderboards, it doesn't really matter anymore which of them wins and which of them loses, so long as they don't both go on to win games after this series.  The Dodgers still have three games left with each of the two teams, so things are getting interesting.  Here are your up-to-the-minute standings:
