Fowler punished the Dodgers last night, going 2 for 3 with a homer and 2 RBIs.
Spin: With Troy Tulowitzki given the night off to rest an ailing shoulder, Fowler led off the game with a homerun. For those of you that don't speak Dexterish, that was Fowler's way of saying, "Take note, Dwight Howard. Real men step up when their team's superstar is out."
Fowler's smash was his 8th of the year, but just his first from the right side of the plate. Before the game, teammates reported seeing Fowler watching tape of Rocky II, in which Rocky feigns Apollo Creed by initially fighting right-handed before switching back to his natural southpaw style. If you're not understanding the analogy, hop on your Netflix account and rent the damn movie. Ted Lilly is the closest thing to a doppelganger that Carl Weathers will ever see.
