The Dodgers on Wednesday again staged a rally, scoring three runs to pull closer to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Unfortunately for the Dodgers, however, Arizona was already ahead by 10 runs before the seventh. Ted Lilly had his first true stinker start of the season in the finale of their three-game series at Chase Field, an 11-4 loss that snapped their six-game winning streak.
