Sports: Dodgers by the numbers

Dodgers fans are pretty happy considering the early injuries and the big 50 game suspension that has sidelined the Mannywood Show.

The 37-19 record is the best in the MLB.

But a look behind the numbers show that the Dodgers have been beating up on the Western Division teams: 25-9!

Outside of that the Dodgers are a mere 12-10!

The Phillies who beat them in the NLCS are 32-20 overall with a 17-11 record against their Eastern Division siblings. Outside that group, they are 15-9!

The Angels who took the recent Freeway series are 27-25 overall but looking only at out of division they are 18-13.

Of course, long suffering Dodger fans always know there is always trouble just around the corner and find reasons to be concerned. That vague sense does have some numerical basis!
