The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 5-4 in 10 innings, their 30th win of the season. The Dodgers were in an early hole after Torii Hunter hit a 3-run homer to give the Angels a 4-1 lead in the top of the fifth. However, LA came back, scoring twice in the bottom of the inning, and tying up the game in the eighth on an RBI-single from Casey Blake. Juan Pierre walked with the bases loaded in the 10th to get the Dodgers the victory. Andre Ethier showed signs of life, getting a single and a double and scoring twice before leaving the game with an injury. Russell Martin also doubled and singled, plus he drove in two runs. Blake doubled and singled twice, and James Loney had a single, double, a run scored, and an RBI. Juan Rivera had three hits for the Angels, including a solo-homer, and scored twice.
Andre Ethier had to leave the game after he split open the toenail on his right big-toe. His condition is uncertain.
Jason Schmidt was hit in the head by a line-drive in a rehab start with Albuquerque. The injury is not serious.
Jonathan Broxton pitched two scoreless innings to receive his fifth win of the season. His five wins are second on the team behind Chad Billingsley's six.
