Well tonight was just one of those games where absolutely nothing went right for the boys in blue, but I actually don't mind these types of losses; they sure beat one-run heartbreakers. Sort of a get all your bad play out of the way in one night sort of deal.
- Chris Carpenter brought his best stuff, and when he does that, there's not a whole lot that you can do to stop him. He scattered 4 hits and 0 walks over 8 innings, and the Dodgers never really sniffed a chance in this game.
- Kershaw on the other hand looked like the Kershaw of old, walking guys, falling behind nearly every batter, and working up a redonkulous pitch count early.
- The lone bright spot for the Dodgers was Ethier going 2 for 4 with a solo HR, and a couple of loud outs. We really need him and Kemp to pick up the slack if we are going to make a pennant run, because we're certainly not going to get any help from Frank McCheap.
