Ellis a leader for Dodgers in clubhouse, at the plate

A.J. Ellis is, in many ways, a spiritual leader for this Dodgers team. After Friday night's loss, he took it upon himself to gather his teammates and remind them that they've bounced back from worse, that it's all about winning the war, not the battle. Ellis has also been a leader at the plate. His leadoff double in the third inning paved the way for a two-run rally in a slim 3-2 win over the Cardinals in Game 2.
