LA Dodgers defeat NY Mets 11-2. As Mike Scioscia's Tragic Illness documented, Randy Wolf decided to change his number yet again taking Will Ohman's 43. Coming into the game leading all starters with 12 no-decisions, Wolf got the win thanks to the Dodgers bats bring his record interestingly enough to 4-3. Second baseman Orlando Hudson who had been in a hitting slump recently decided to make an exclamation in the first inning with the bases loaded by hitting a bases clearing double to give the Dodgers a 4-0 lead. Manny Ramirez was deuces wild going 2-for-2 with two runs, two RBI and two walks. Wolf's line for the game was 6 1/3 innings pitched giving up two runs on seven hits and two walks with three strikeouts. The Dodgers took two of three games against a Mets team that has been reeling thanks to injuries with Carlos Delgado, Carlos Beltran and Jose Reyes.
