Not much point in rehashing what took place other than the fact that Greg Maddux lost to the Giants for the first time since May 9, 2003. Since then, he had been 7-0 in 13 starts against them. The Dodgers fell to 80-74, but they maintained their 3 1/2-game lead over the Snakes, who lost at Colorado, and the Dodgers’ magic number shrank to six. … By the way, if you were here tonight, you were probably handed, as you walked into the park, this ridiculous little piece of useless garbage that was a full-color flip-photo book (54 pages) of Kirk Gibson’s HR, because as we all know, that thing isn’t celebrated nearly enough around here. The booklet was supposed to serve as a reminder to vote in this year’s election and to promote the fact you can register here at the stadium. The promotion was sponsored by the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk. If you look inside the front cover, you see it printed in plain English: Paid for with Federal Help America Vote Act Funds. Yep, your tax dollars at work. There was a crowd of 55,589 here tonight, so I’m guessing if you walked through the now-empty stands at Dodger Stadium, you would find approx. 55,562 of these things laying in the aisles. Wonder how much each one of them cost to print. Oh, and don’t forget, the guy hitting that home run that everybody around here still fawns over 20 years later is now the bench coach for the team that is trying to catch the Dodgers in the N.L. West.
