Let's play two!

I'm not going to lie.  With the Lakers playing Game 4 against the Suns today at Staples (both K brothers in attendance) at the same time the Dodgers were facing the Pads at PETCO, I figured I'd have to catch the end of the baseball game on the ol' DVR when I got home.  Shows what I know.  In fact, I was able to enjoy a couple innings.  Fortunate, too, since the machine probably stopped recording around the 11th.  Not nearly enough to see the conclusion of Sunday's 17 frame, 4 hour 55 minute, ultimately satisfying 5-4 win.  Brady Clark drove home Wilson Valdez with a two-out double for the go-ahead run, capitalizing on an error by San Diego catcher-turned-first baseman Pete LaForest.  In the bottom of the inning, Chad Billingsley pitched around a Ramon Martinez miscue to pick up his second win of the season.  Big ups for a Dodgers staff that allowed only nine hits and four walks all day. 

More on the game tomorrow.

Big win, again. The Dodgers could have easily been swept in this series, but, instead won 2 out of 3.

Wow, I seem to miss all of the great Sunday games. Sounds like it was a great victory, but I hope that there's still something left in the tank for the Arizona series.

Now that Tsao has established himself as an incredibly solid setup-man, isn't it about time that Little started to use Beimel in situational lefty situations? At the very least, it seems like Beimel could use a couple of outings where he doesn't have to get more than three outs.
