Dem Bums - A Dodgers Blog

The Dodgers have dropped three of four and are now 4 1/2 behind the Dbacks in the division. They head out on a six-game roadtrip beginning in Detroit for a three game series with the Tigers, who are sporting a three-game win streak.

Derek Lowe is back in his home state this weekend and will take the mound tonight. Lowe looks to even his record at 5-5 with a win. He is 7-1 lifetime with a 1.82 ERA against the Tigers, though he hasn’t faced them in nearly three years. He will face Tiger rookie Armando Galarraga, who is 5-2 with a 3.70 ERA.
