D-Backs Down Dodgers in Opener

The Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-1, their second loss in a row. Dan Haren shut LA down for eight innings, holding them to just one run on six hits while striking out eight. Clayton Kershaw hit trouble in the second, giving up four runs on three hits and three walks. Matt Kemp hit his 17th home run of the season, and Manny Ramirez had three hits.

The Dodgers signed second-round draft pick Garrett Gould to a contract. Gould is a first-round talent who dropped to the second due to signability issues.
