Dem Bums – A Dodgers Blog

The Dodgers look to extend their win streak to nine with the first game of a three-game series with the Astros in Houston.

Clayton Kershaw is still looking for his first win, or even decision, of the season as he takes on Russ Ortiz. Ortiz is also 0-0 in ’09, and is 8-9 lifetime with a 5.07 ERA in 22 outings against the Dodgers. 

Congratulations also to Andre Ethier, who was named NL Player of the Week, batting 9 for 23 with 12 RBI.
