Brian Falkenborg got the win, he's 2-2. Kip Wells took the loss, he's 1-2.
As far as pitching goes, the Dodgers were not impressive throughout the game. Starter Eric Stults went only 3 and 2/3 innings giving up three runs on six hits and three walks. In total, the Dodgers used five pitchers in the game, and each one gave up at least one run and other than when Stults set the Rockies down 1-2-3 in the 1st inning, the Rockies managed to get at least one baserunner every inning.
They also managed to score at least one run in each of the last seven innings.The pitching performance would have been much harder to take if not for the Dodger offense. The collected season highs in both runs (16) and hits (18). Every position player in the starting line-up collected a hit. Every player in the starting line-up, including Stults, knocked in at least one run (except Andruw Jones, who failed to collect any RBIs on the day, but including Ángel Berroa, who knocked in two runs after his first 73 at-bats in which he went without an RBI) as well as scored a run. The two best offensive performances would have to go to Jeff Kent (who went 3-3 with a walk, two RBIs, and three runs scored) and James Loney (who raised his batting average back to .300, going 3-6 with five RBIs and two runs scored).
The Arizona Diamondbacks also won today, so the Dodgers will remain tied for 1st place in the NL West
Also: Clayton Kershaw will be called-up for tomorrow's game, which starts at 6:05 L.A. time. No word yet as to who's spot he will take on the roster.
