Here Come the Dodgers
The Dodgers win again, taking down Houston 5-2. The young hitters played well. Ethier and Loney homered, and DeWitt drove in two. Loney hit for a high average in June, but hit only one home run. Los Angeles could use him picking up his power.
The Diamondbacks are losing 3-0 in the sixth. An Arizona loss puts the Dodgers 1/2 game out of first place in the NL West. Dodgers are 10-5 over their last 15 games.
Take note of what Chad Billingsley is doing. His 2008 ERA is lower than Brandon Webb's now. In 83 1/3 innings since the end of April, Billingsley's ERA is 2.27.
