Stults Gets Plenty of Support in Win

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Francisco Giants 7-2, completing the three-game sweep of their bitter rivals. Eric Stults pitched five innings, allowing just two runs on five hits and three walks to get the win. Rafael Furcal hit a leadoff home run on the third pitch of the first inning, and Matt Kemp hit an RBI-triple and scored two runs. Casey Blake drove in two runs, and Doug Mientkiewicz had a pinch-hit, two-run double. However, on his slide into second, Mientkiewicz dislocated his right shoulder, and he is most likely going to the disabled list. The Giants hit just 1-for-10 with runners in scoring-position. Emmanuel Burris had three hits for San Fran, including a double, and scored a run.
