Arizona Diamondbacks defeat Los Angeles Angels 5-0. After Angels starter Dan Haren intentionally walked left-handed hitting Miguel Montero to get to the right-handed Aaron Hill in the sixth inning, Hill all but closed the game for the D-Backs with his three-run homer. D-Backs starter Trevor Cahill tossed seven innings of three-hit ball as they inched one game closer to .500.
LA Dodgers defeat Chicago White Sox 7-6. James Loney scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the eighth inning to give the Dodgers the victory. The Dodgers scored five runs in the sixth inning helped out by Elian Herrera's two-run double that tied the game.
Kings Sign Two Players. Coming right off of their Stanley Cup celebration, the Kings signed forwards Marc-Andre Cliche and Rich Clune to two-year contracts. Cliche played in 72 games for the Manchester Monarchs — the Kings American Hockey League affiliate — and Clune played 56 games. Clune also played in 14 games for the Kings during the 2009-10 season recording two assists and 26 penalty minutes in 102 minutes of ice time. Cliche also played in one game that season.
Bitch, Please! Staying with the Kings, the Stanley Cup made its way to Las Vegas. To the MGM Grand to be specific.
Bro!!!!!
