A Four Game Winning Streak

The Dodgers beat the Giants last night 6-5 and extend their winning streak to 4 games. A four game winning streak is great but more importantly, it has come against the National League West. Ex-closer Brandon League tried his best to blow a three-run lead in the ninth inning but Paco Rodriguez got the final two outs for his first save on the season. The last out came on the catch of the year by Matt Kemp, in his first game back from the Disabled List. Stephen Fife got the win (2-2) with 6 2/3 innings, giving up 3 runs. The offense was led by Mark Ellis (4th homerun) and Hanley Ramirez (5th Homerun). Yasiel Puig put up an 0 for 4 but you can't expect him to do it every game. Mark Saxon of ESPNLosangeles.com reports that this is the deepest and healthiest the Dodgers have been all season with the exception of Outfielder Carl Crawford who is still about two weeks from returning. As hot as Yasiel Puig has been, Crawford may have a hard time getting his job back.
