The NLCS will kick-off in less than an hour, and last I checked, the Cubs aren't playing. But before we completely forget about the lovable losers until spring, here's
Jim Hendry's final word on who broke the
pipe that flooded Dodger Stadium's visitor's clubhouse. From
Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune:
"I have no idea," Hendry said. "And I don't have any interest in finding out. To me, it's not even an issue. Believe me, if I had been in a uniform, it might've been me."
[...] "The [Dodgers] clubhouse people told me it was about the fourth or fifth time it's happened this year," Hendry said. "I guess the nozzle was knocked off the piping on the wall, and it's probably in a convenient spot when you're leaving the dugout to smack it.
As Hendry went on to explain, he would've been
more upset had his players not been angry. Can't say I blame him, either. If teams in the regular season were frustrated enough to break the pipe four or five times, the Dodgers should be relieved that a team who just choked away everything they worked for in the regular season didn't burn the whole place down.
