Sons of Steve Garvey BARVES 3, DODGERS 1 Can't blame this one on Donnie. Chris Capuano was stellar, allowing one earned run over 7.1 innings. In the 8th, Donnie went to Kenley Jansen, who promptly served up back-to-back dingers. And when your offense scores one run a game, ya gonna lose (again). And this just in: Atlanta's still not Miami!

Sons of Steve Garvey If it wasn't for that Medlen kid....Chris Capuano (1-2, 6.60) vs. Kris Medlen (1-5, 3.44). Do the Dodgers possess road toughness? After getting whacked by Justin Upton and his MLB-leading 14th home run (and a granny at that), the team turns to Capuano, fresh off his first win of the season — over Miami. Atlanta ain't Miami. Will Cap notice the difference?

Los Angeles Dodgers May 6, 2013Sons of Steve Garvey DIAMONDBACKS 9, DODGERS 2 The Dodgers took to a damp field tonight, and were kind enough to finish the game before the rain picked up late this evening. However they let the Diamondbacks come into town and rain all over any sense of a parade signaling the return of Chris Capuano and Adrian Gonzalez.

Carl Crawford banged a solo HR in the third, which was nice and all. But his brutal misplay of a Trevor...

It's a cold, rainy, and cloudy day in Los Angeles today*, which may be just storm-front related, but sure seems like it's reflecting the Dodgers' difficult start this year.
