| Dodgers’ starter Kershaw, Mattingly ejected | |
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw and manager Don Mattingly have been ejected from a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Kershaw was tossed in the sixth inning Wednesday night after his inside pitch struck Arizona’s Gerardo Parra on the right elbow. Mattingly rushed out of the dugout to argue with home plate umpire Bill Welke, while Kershaw and catcher Rod Barajas joined the verbal fray. Kershaw left the game with a 2-0 lead, having allowed one hit. There was prolonged booing as he walked to the dugout and took a seat while Mattingly kept arguing. The incident was a carryover from Tuesday night’s game in which Parra momentarily stood at the plate to admire his solo homer off reliever Hong-Chih Kuo that tied the game in the seventh. Parra was annoyed Kuo had thrown an earlier pitch near his head. Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis yelled at Parra as he crossed the plate, and Kershaw yelled at Parra from the top step of the dugout. The umpires warned both benches against further trouble. If you like reading our blog, remember to bookmark it. Posted in dodgers-news | Comments Off

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 13 (UPI) — Gerardo Parra knocked in four runs and Joe Saunders delivered a solid start Monday, boosting the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Parra capped a five-run Diamondbacks rally in the sixth inning with a two-run single and drove in two more with an eighth-inning double, helping Arizona win the opener of a three-game series. Paul Goldschmidt and Ryan Roberts each went 2-for-4 with an RBI as first-place Arizona cut its magic number to clinch the National League West to seven with its 17th win in 20 games. Saunders (11-12) held the Dodgers to two runs on four hits over seven frames, walking only one and striking out four en route to the victory. Ted Lilly (9-14) yielded three runs on three hits in a 5 1/3-inning effort for Los Angeles. Matt Kemp homered and Jerry Sands went 3-for-4 with an RBI in the loss.
