So, I was watching the Kings score their first goal tonight, and I was imagining what baseball would be like if, instead of a single batter standing 60 1/2 feet away from the pitcher, you had several batters at once each hacking away at a ball with their bats and the infielders hacking back at them.

Anyway …

Much was made early on of how the Dodgers fattened up on a weak Diamondbacks team, going 7-1 in their first eight matchups. On April 29, the Dodgers were 14-12 and the Diamondbacks 8-22. But since then, Arizona is 21-18 and the Dodgers 21-21. Meaning that Arizona is not the pushover it was originally believed to be.

Things change. And then they change again. Something to keep in mind.
