Dodgers 7, Orioles 4

| | Comments (0) |

Andruw Jones broke a 4-4 tie with a two-run homer in the eighth inning off Jon Leicester. Chan Ho Park pitched three perfect innings for the Dodgers and now has seven shutout innings for the spring, during which he has allowed a total of two hits. That would seem to put Park smack in the middle of the race for the fifth starter's spot. Eric Stults, a fringe candidate for the role, struggled, allowing two runs on a hit and four walks over 1 2/3 in relief of Park. Both pitchers will go to China, but Esteban Loaiza remains the odds-on favorite to win the job. George Lombard, a non-roster outfielder with little chance of making the club, had an RBI triple in his only at-bat and now is hitting .615 (8 for 13) for the spring with a triple, 2 HRs and four RBI. Dodgers go to 6-6-1 for the spring. Versus the Marlins tomorrow.
