LA Dodgers defeat San Diego Padres 4-1. Manny Ramirez went 0-for-3 with a walk and scored a run in the third inning thanks in large part to an errant pick-off play by Padres ace Jake Peavy. The game started off on the right foot for the Dodgers when Rafael Furcal and Orlando Hudson led off the game with consecutive singles. Matt Kemp would close out the scoring with a towering home run to deep center field in the seventh inning. Kemp also robbed Jody Gerut of a line drive double when he made a diving catch into the sunlight in the sixth inning. Despite having a shaky spring, Jonathan Broxton smoked the ball by the last three Padres hitters striking out two for a perfect ninth. This marks the second time Peavy has lost to the Dodgers, the first since 2003 when Kevin Brown was the winning pitcher for the Dodgers. more ›

Vancouver Canucks defeat LA Kings 4-0. Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo withstood the onslaught of 28 shots on goal and let none pass including a penalty shot by Alexander Frolov. The Kings meanwhile did no favors for their goalie Jason LaBarbera by being out of position on defense giving the Canucks easy shots. It was the case of the Kings just not being able to capitalize on their opportunities. Luongo got his 40th career shutout becoming just the 28th goalie to do so. This was Vancouver's first shutout of the Kings in Los Angeles since they joined the league in 1970. more ›
