LAst Night's Action: Tomko Delivers
Dodgers 5, Marlins 3 - The bad news for Los Angeles this season is that a low percentage of their baserunners make it home. On Wednesday they left the bases juiced three times and stranded a total of 13. The good news is that so many Dodgers are getting on base, they don't need all of them to score. Brett Tomko helped his own cause by bunting home a suicide squeeze, but was more impressive with a no-hitter going into the sixth. He started to unravel by allowing five hits and three runs before being pulled in the seventh, but still picked up his first win of the season.
Angels 3, Indians 2 - The first place Angels snapped a three game losing streak with a come from behind victory over Cleveland. The Indians scored twice in the first, but Jared Weaver buckled down after that. Anaheim didn't get on the board until the seventh when Kendry Morales smacked a two run homer. One inning later, Gary Matthews Jr. hit a solo shot to win the game.
Elsewhere - $1,000 seats available at the LA Coliseum ... Brady is a chump and he still needs a haircut ... USC's Richard Wood elected to College Football Hall of Fame. You can call him Batman, just don't call him Dick ... Speaking of Hall of Famers (to be), Rickey Henderson still wants to play, but he's also just a fan.
