The Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday completed a three-game sweep of the Cubs in the National League Division Series. Since then, fans have been leaving candles, flowers, cans of Old Style beer and notes outside the stadium, the Chicago Sun-Times reported Monday.

"Dear Cubs," one note reads. "Thanks for nothing."

Workers at a nearby bar, Murphy's Bleachers, said they started the shrine as a way to deal with their grief over the disappointing end to a season in which the Cubs finished with the best regular season record in baseball.

"It was like a death," said bartender John Long. "The 2008 season died."
