Martinez is fine

He just entered as a pinch runner and stayed in the game at 1B. Guess they just wanted to give DeWitt a chance to show what he can do. He is still in the game, is 1 for 3 with a run scored and just made a fantastic diving catch of a smoking liner off the bat of Ryan Ludwick to rob Ludwick of a hit. Kuroda got roughed up after pitching four scoreless innings in his first two outings. Today, he gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits and didn't get past the second inning on a day when he had been slated to go three. But the Cardinals have been throwing the ball around like the Bad News Bears. They committed three errors in the third inning, including two by former Gold Glove shortstop Cesar Izturis, and the Dodgers scored seven runs in an inning for the second time in three days. ... Loney is having an incredible spring, which he usually does. He went 2 for 3 with a double today before leaving the game and is now hitting .423 with four doubles. ... Dodgers 13, Cardinals 6, bottom 5, and that's after Adam Kennedy just hit a two-out, three-run double off Kuo
