9/25 6-4 W over the Braves
We batted around in the first and put 5 on the board. Guerrero with his 41^st error. Welch goes 8 for his 18^th win. Howe gets his 34^th save.

9/26 2-1 L against the Reds
Pena goes the distance, gets PoG, but the offense can't pick him up. Smalley hits number 24. Guerrero with 2 more errors, now has 43. Are they really going to stick with him?

9/27 6-4 W over the Reds
The Dodgers hit 4 homeruns, Baker (12), Stubbs (28), Brenly (15), Kittle (13). Doc Medich pitches into the 8^th, and Minton looks bad in relief once again. Howe closes out for his 35^th.

9/28 5-4 L to the Padres
Fell behind early, but another Kittle would homer and tied it up. Valenzuela gave it right back in the bottom of the 8^th. Dusty would get us within striking distance with a 2-run homer, but Kittle would strike out to end it.

9/29 9-7 W over the Padres
This was a crazy game. We claw back from down 4-1 to make it a 1 run game. But Neidenfuer lets 5 baserunners on and gets really roughed up for the first time this year. Head into the top of the 9^th down 7-3 and the rally begins. Topped off by a Sid Bream, pinch hit, Grand Slam. The first homerun of his career, and the first hit of his career. Not a bad way to start Sid! John Franco gets his first career win. Howe shuts them down for his 36^th save.

Steve Garvey got back into the lineup as Greg Brock is sitting for a few with some knee soreness. That doesn't bode well for longevity when you're only 26. LA will finish the year off with a 3 game homestand against the Giants, who we have a losing record against, next. We just need 1 more win to better the record from 1982.

9/30 4-1 W over the Giants
We pick up win number 106. Roy Smalley goes deep 2 times and knocked in 3, he's got 26 now. Bob Welch goes 7 strong for his 19^th win and Howe gets 6 outs (4K's) for his 37^th save.

10/1 9-2 L to the Giants
Pena was ineffective today, walking 5 and giving up 7 hits. No real bright spots. There was a Dave Stewart sighting, as he pitched 2 scoreless.

10/2 3-1 W over the Giants
Doc Medich dominated allowing 4 hits and a run over 8 and a third. Roy Smalley went deep again for his 27^th and Howe cleaned up the last 2 outs for his 38^th save.

So the 1983 Los Angeles Dodgers are the NL West Champions with a 107-55 record. That is tops in baseball once again. A damn fine year for a fan, and once again, very high hopes for the playoffs.
