Dodgers finally solve Angels
Baseball Betting Lines
06/25/2010 -
Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rafael Furcal's two-run double fueled a five-
run fourth inning, as the Dodgers notched their first win this season in the
Freeway Series with a 10-6 decision over the Angels.
Casey Blake and Jamey Carroll collected three hits apiece and knocked in a run
for the Dodgers, who snapped a six-game losing streak and avoided a third
consecutive interleague sweep.
"Putting the five-spot up in the fourth was big and it was nice that we
continued to score," said Dodgers manager Joe Torre. "We were aggressive on
the basepaths. We had a lot of life tonight."
Charlie Haeger returned from a stint on the disabled list with a sprained
right toe to start for the Dodgers. The knuckleballer gave up four runs on
five hits and four walks over 4 2/3 innings. Jeff Weaver (4-1) tossed a
scoreless inning to get the win.
Bobby Abreu went 2-for-3 with two walks and two runs batted in for the Angels,
who posted a 5-1 record against their crosstown rivals.
Scott Kazmir (7-6) allowed five runs on six hits in 3 2/3 innings. He had won
four straight starts.
Abreu's RBI single staked the Angels to a 1-0 lead in the first inning, but
the Dodgers erupted in the fourth.
Matt Kemp led off with a single and Kazmir hit James Loney with a pitch. After
Russell Martin drew a one-out walk, Reed Johnson reached on an infield single
to plate the tying run. Furcal's double gave the visitors the lead and Carroll
singled home Johnson before Furcal scored on a fielder's choice to make 5-1.
"My fastball command wasn't there, but I had a good feel with other pitches,"
Kazmir said. "Hitting Loney and walking Martin in the fourth was big. You
can't give guys free bases."
Mike Napoli hit a solo home run to center field off Haeger in the fourth. A
sacrifice fly by Martin in the fifth restored the Dodgers' four-run advantage.
Torii Hunter and Hideki Matsui stroked RBI singles to trim the Angels' deficit
to 6-4 in the bottom of the inning.
The Dodgers increased their lead to 8-4 in the seventh on RBI singles by Manny
Ramirez and Blake. Ramirez and Loney both contributed run-scoring singles in
the eighth.
The Angels picked up two runs in the ninth on a double by Kevin Frandsen and
single by Abreu.
