Los Angeles is all of a sudden having problems scoring runs; the Dodgers have crossed the plate just ten times int he last five games - all losses. Last night Brad Penny was not able to hold Milwaukee down, yielding five runs in six innings. And they allowed the Brewers to win their fourth game in five tries. L.A. has slipped back to the .500 mark and 5-1/2 games behind front-running San Francisco Giants, who are just three games behind them.
Meanwhile, Cards.
Derek Lowe started very strong for the Dodgers, posting a 2.45 ERA in his first five starts. But he has been hit hard in his last two, giving up eleven runs combined to the Astros in just 10-1/3 innings. So clearly he is looking for a better effort.
One thing the Major League Baseball betting odds.
