LOS ANGELES - It's going to take some time for the Cubs second straight playoff disaster to really sink in, but the mood in the clubhouse after Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3 of the National League Division Series was a mixture of sadness and disbelief.Still, after watching his league-leading offense disappear in the postseason once again, manager Lou Piniella admitted he wasn't shocked at all by the results.
"Nothing is shocking," he said. "I said once you get into postseason, all eight teams start equal and they all have chances. I was concerned about our offense coming into this thing, to be honest with you. And basically my concerns were realized.
