Packing up early

For the Angels, Gary Matthews, Orlando Cabrera and Vladimir Guerrero already are out of the game. I'm guessing there will be a parade of early exits on both sides in the next couple of innings. Brad Penny is pitching adequately enough that he has yet to give up a run, but he was saved by his defense twice in the third inning. After Matthews doubled with one out, Brady Clark made a diving catch to rob Cabrera of a hit. Guerrero then smoked one to the left side that Wilson Betemit dived into the hole to his left to snare. Betemit got up and threw out Guerrero by a narrow margin. Wilson Valdez and Ramon Martinez, who is out of the game already, have two hits each. Dodgers 2, Angels 0, bottom 4
