The Dodgers go for the sweep tonight against the Reds on Manny bobblehead night. manny is not in the lineup tonight though, due to a bruised hand. here are the lineups:
Dodgers:
Furcal, SS
Hudson, 2B
Ethier, RF
Blake, 3B
Loney, 1B
Kemp, CF
Martin, C
Billingsley, P
Pierre, LF
Reds:
Dickerson RF
Taveras Cf
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Nix LF
Encarnacion 3B
Hairston SS
Hanigan C
Arroyo P
Billingsley tries to break out of his recent struggles(0-2 with a 6.55 ERA in his past six outings), and regain his earlier form(9-3 with a 2.72 ERA through his first 14 starts). Manny will not be in the lineup on his bobblehead night, but who know, he might get a pinch hitting oppurtunity in a big spot. James Loney and Matt Kemp both look to continue hitting Arroyo very well. Pierre is hitting 9th again, as Joe Torre likes to do.
Tidbits: The Dodgers' four-game winning streak is the club's longest since it won four in a row May 25-28. ... At 60-34, the Dodgers are off to their best 94-game start since 1974, when they were 62-32. ... The Dodgers extended their winning streak over the Reds to eight games with their 12-3 win Tuesday night. ... Matt Kemp homered Tuesday for the third time in his past eight games.
