I hated word problems in school. I always got them wrong. Take this, for example:
 On Saturday, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim played the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Angels had 5 hits. The Dodgers had none. Who won the game?
After spending hours upon hours mulling this one over, no doubt I would have picked the Angels. I mean, how can a team win with no hits, right?
Wrong.
The correct answer: the Dodgers. Final score: 1-0. The Dodgers managed to win a game without a hit.
Oh, and one other quirky little factoid: because it was a home game for the Dodgers, they didn’t bat in the bottom of the ninth, therefore this does not qualify as a no-hitter.
Gotta love baseball.
Being a life long Dodger fan, I’d wager they’ve done this before. They won the pennant (way back before you were born, when they lived in Brooklyn, I think) one year with good pitching, and good base running. Had a problem with the whole hit the ball thing.
About the only time they’ve been successful in the hitting thing was in my youth, when they had Garvey, Cey, etc.
I so need to see the Dodgers if they ever come to Arlington in this wacky cross-league play thingy.
