Chicago White Sox defeat LA Dodgers 2-0. Dodger's starter Clayton Kershaw couldn't get out of the fifth inning, and the Dodger's offense did nothing to help him. The Dodgers had their chances to at least make it a game, but when it counted the most the Bums went cold. Kershaw is still without a win in any professional game this year, and thanks to being in a horrible NL West the Dodgers still have......

Dodger pitcher Eric Stults Goes the Distance. AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill LA Dodgers defeat Chicago White Sox 5-0. Eric Stults just a couple of weeks ago was sweating it out in Vegas. Wednesday night he became the second Dodger pitcher this season to throw a complete game shutout giving up only four hits while walking only one. Stults was right on his game confusing the Sox hitters all night. Meanwhile Joe Torre decided to......

Chicago White Sox defeats LA Dodgers 6-1. Thanks to being pulled over in Century City on Pico for a fix-it ticket, I missed the first hour of the game. To really pour it on, the game only lasted 2:05. It was a pitcher's duel until the eighth inning when Derek Lowe left everything up and the Sox took him to task. The Sox scored four in the inning to take a 6-1 lead. Against......

Lotsa love to go around on the Laker's bench. AP/Mark J. Terrill LA Lakers defeat San Antonio Spurs 101-71. I was wrong. I really thought the Spurs would be well rested and completely shut down the Lakers. In fact the opposite happened. After feeling each other during most the first half, the Lakers went on a 9-0 run to take a nine point lead in the half. In the second half, the Lakers ran......

LA Lakers defeat Utah Jazz 111-104. Kobe Bryant, sore back and all, and the Lakers held off the Jazz to win game five of the series. The fourth quarter started with an 81-81 tie and something happened that didn't happen in overtime in game four: Kobe Bryant attempted no shots. Instead he relied on his other four teammates to make the open shots. The best one came 21 seconds left in the game with......

Milwaukee Brewers defeat LA Dodgers 5-3. The Dodgers have worse skid marks than one of my exes. With a 3-2 lead in the fifth inning, Dodger's starter Brad Penny gave up a two-run double to last season's NL Rookie of the Year and local boy Ryan Braun. Closer Eric Gagne came in the ninth inning for the save and gave up a single and a walk. Juan Pierre, representing the tying run, pops out......

LA Angels defeat Chicago White Sox 10-7. This was not a pretty game by any stretch of the imagination, but it looks like Vladamir Guerrero's bat has come back to life after being dormant for so long. Guerrero hit an Earl Weaver in the fifth inning to give the Angels a 6-4 lead. Being up 10-4 in the eighth inning didn't make things easier for the Angels with the White Sox attempting to make......

Taken today in Venice at Lincoln and Venice Blvds., the above picture shows a billboard that has kicked the bucket. Did it finish its "bucket list" too? Three people were shot and injured today in Lincoln Heights near Daly and Mozart streets at 1:22 p.m. *UPDATE, 7:43 p.m.: LAPD is confirming to LAist that one died at the scene, making this the fourth murder for 2008.

Lost amidst the celebration of Kobe's hoop heroics and the Clippers getting a playoff series win, the Angels and Dodgers have been dropping games, both sporting a 12-14 record after getting beat Monday by the A's and Diamondbacks respectively. The Dodgers lost a killer against the Padres on Sunday after the bullpen blew a 5-run lead... IN THE NINTH INNING. That was the Dodgers first loss after leading a game after eight innings. They......

It has been a very busy week and although the weather has been pretty crappy, the play of the local teams have not. First and foremost with the MLB season opening, the Dodgers were picked anywhere from first to third in the division by various sports writers. LAist has always maintained that if the team, how ever hodge-podged it may seem, remains healthy they will contend. Well, we know how that went dont we?......

When pinch runner Pablo Ozuna crossed the plate to win Game 2 of the ALCS for the Chicago White Sox, losing pitcher Kelvim Escobar was charged with the run. However, it was unearned. In more ways than one. Home plate umpire Doug “Mr. Magoo” Eddings handed the White Sox an extra out after making the incorrect call on strike three to A.J. Pierzynski after he swung and missed, closing his fist for a strike,......

These are tough times for the Los Angeles Dodgers. They just went through their second long losing streak of the season, finally beating the Angels 10-5, but find themselves three and a half games behind the Giants and in third place. LAist is particularly concerned that in the past week the Dodgers have given up more than seven runs a game. Duaner Sanchez, Darren Dreifort, Wilson Alvarez, and even Guillermo Mota have struggled in......
