The pitching duo of Jered Weaver and Jose Arrendano combined to keep the Dodgers hitless in Saturday night's game at Dodger Stadium.

Unfortunately, he "only" made 19 of his shots and missed a critical three pointer at the end of overtime. Clippers 105,...

Dodger Stadium opened for business last night, with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim taking advantage of Randy Wolf's eight-million dollar arm and chalking up an easy 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the opening game of the annual pre-season Freeway Series.
