Two Games
Procrastinators, And A Low Lowe: Dodgers 7, Marlins 6
I suppose I underestimated the Marlins this year, but then, so did everybody. Derek Lowe gave up plenty of line drive base hits, which tells me he wasn't working properly, something that became bluntly obvious in the three-run fifth. Only three of Lowe's runs were earned thanks to errors by James Loney and Matt Kemp in the fifth. The game-winner came against putative closer Kevin Gregg, who took the loss when he allowed a two-out RBI single to Jeff Kent. It's a win, but an ugly one. It's also their fourth straight victory, one that brings the Dodgers to .500 for the first time since April 8.How This Script Is Supposed To Go: Angels 2, Oakland 0
Frankie was scary as hell, but Joe Saunders mostly wasn't, pitching a four-hit shutout through eight frames. Outside Santana, he's arguably the Angels' best pitcher at the moment, and though I don't have a lot of confidence I'll be expressing similar sentiments in September, he's still damned good.The only Halo offense happened in the third, when Brandon Wood — I hope you're sitting down — drew a one-out walk and Chone Figgins doubled him to third. A wild pitch and a Gary Matthews, Jr. groundout cashed both in, and that was that.
