The Reds have put their terrible road trip officially behind them and won twice in a row, and three out of four. Reds beat Dodgers, 2-1.
The Dodgers managed just one run against Bronson Arroyo and the Cincinnati bullpen, losing to the Reds 2-1, but the bigger loss was that of Rafael Furcal. The Dodgers' shortstop, who already missed 37 games with a broken left thumb this season, injured his left side on a throw to third base in the second inning and was removed from the game one half-inning later.
My roommates are gone for the weekend... and I am watching Titanic on TV. At least the Reds are winning. I hope this game turns out better than this movie.
We should score more runs than the other team.
The Dodgers open up a three-game series in Cincinnati tonight, with Hiroki Kuroda facing Bronson Arroyo in the first game of a 10-game road trip for the Dodgers. The Dodgers are expected to activate relief pitcher Vicente Padilla but the DL tally will remain at eight, as Jon Garland will likely head the disabled list with right shoulder inflammation.
