Sports: Dodgers Down in the Dumps

It hasn't been too good for Dodger fans of late.

They have lost 4 straight and 8 of the last 10. They are falling in the standings after rising to the top oh so briefly.

They lost a heartbreaker in 17 innings on a walk off walk last Saturday wasting a reasonable pitching performance by Lowe, one of their top 2 pitchers.

Tonight, the other pitching in the Dodger 1-2 punch, Brad Penny, got roughed up giving up 10 hits and 5 runs in 6 innings.

It is going to be up to 21-year old Chad Billingsley to try to stop the bleeding tomorrow night.

In one bit of hopefully good news, Izzy will be back and will play third base.

Mueller was the original plan for third base but GM Colletti knew those old knees might be trouble so it was good he held onto Izturis.
