LAst Night's Action: Plenty For Mom To Talk About

Happy Mother's Day!Dodgers 10, Reds 5 - All nine Dodger starters had at least one hit or run scored, giving the team moms something to be proud of. Cincinnati's Ken Griffey, Jr. didn't disappoint, either, going deep on Mother's Day for the sixth time in his career.

Ducks 4, Red Wings 3, OT - The Ducks evened the Western Conference Finals against Detroit at a game each and claimed home ice advantage heading into the next two games in Anaheim. Mrs. Niedermayer could be proud of both of her sons, as Rob scored in the first period and Scott secured the win with a goal in the fifteenth minute of overtime.

Rangers 7, Angels 6 - Eric Gagne edged back into the minds of local baseball fans by shutting down the Angels in the ninth and earning his first win since 2005. Nelson Cruz hit a home run in the bottom half of the frame to steal a win for Texas, who had dropped five in a row to Anaheim. The Angels were potent at the plate, with four home runs among their 13 hits. Switch-hitting Gary Matthews, Jr. went yard from both sides.

Lynx 63, Sparks 55 - Los Angeles is excited for mother-to-be Lisa Leslie, but could have used her on the court as they lost their pre-season finale to Minnesota. Taj McWilliams-Franklin missed her kids on Mother's Day but still didn't see any playing time.

Elsewhere - If Reggie Bush needs advice on dating Hollywood debs, he can always ask Matt Leinart ... Junior is getting a little old for this ... David Beckham raises awareness for missing child ... Donald Trump goes after Mark Cuban. That's not the only way to mix the NBA and bad hair.
