LP: Edward Mujica (1-1, 6.62)

Edward Mujica's struggles continued as he allowed the eventual game-winning run in the eighth inning.

WP: Shelby Miller (4-4, 2.72)
LP: Chad Billingsley (2-3, 3.89)
SV: Trevor Rosenthal (3, 3.32)

Shelby Miller was virtually unhittable, allowing just one hit through eight innings. After allowing two singles in the ninth, Trevor Rosenthal came in and quickly induced a game-ending double play ball.

Adam Wainwright continues his dominace by becoming the first nine game winner in baseball. This is a great series win for us, as the Dodgers had the second best record in baseball.

OF Shane Robinson is only hitting .059 (2-34), so he has been sent down to AAA in exchange for Adron Chambers. Chambers will be another left handed bat off the bench, and he will provide much needed speed to a club with only 2 steals all season.
