LAst Night's Action: Dodgers Lose. Twice.

Damn rally beard.Rockies 3, Dodgers 1 - Olmedo Saenz cranked a pinch-hit home run in the seventh, but the Dodger's offense was otherwise anemic. Rockies starter Jeff Francis had 10 Ks.

Rockies 9, Dodgers 8 - Just when they were looking to turn things around in the second game of the double header, Takashi Saito allowed a two run dinger in the bottom of the ninth. He wasn't the only Dodger pitcher to have a rocky night. David Wells allowed five runs in five innings.

Angels 2, Devil Rays 1 - Good defeated evil for a second game in a row, this time with a little less run power. John Lackey had a shutout going into the ninth, but after giving up a run K-Rod had to come in and throw three strikeouts. The Halos continue to rely on small ball, scoring on a wild pitch and a fielder's choice. They can clinch the pennant this weekend if they split with Seattle. Or they can pick up some wins another time. No hurry, their lead is 8.5 games.

Kings 6, Sharks 5, SO - Los Angeles won in a shootout and has a couple more preseason games in the states before a couple games in Austria and the season opener in London against Anaheim.

Elsewhere - Was OJ memorabilia worth his $125,000 bail? ... Barry Bonds doesn't mince words: "He's stupid. He's an idiot. He spent $750,000 on the ball and that's what he's doing with it?" ... The NBA is hoping to stand tall in China ... Beer banned at Coors Arena. Go figure.

Today's Action - Dodgers @ Colorado (5:35pm) ... Tampa Bay @ Angels (1:35pm) ... Galaxy @ Real Salt Lake (6:00pm) ... San Jose @ Ducks (7:00pm) ... Kings @ Colorado (6:00pm)
