Los Angeles Takes 2-1 Lead in Division Series
The Los Angeles Dodgers silenced the St. Louis Cardinals today to move within one game of the League Championship Series. The Dodgers shut out the Cardinals by a final score of 4-0 at Busch Stadium. Los Angeles right-hander Sonny Gray had a strong outing. He threw 7.0 innings of shutout ball. The win gives the Dodgers a 2-1 advantage in the best-of-5 Division Series.

Though he did not get the decision, Gray did all he could to keep his team close, twirling a shutout through 7 innings, until Los Angeles eventually rallied past the Cardinals.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Los Angeles manager Sam Saunders. "It's usually not just one thing."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
