Today's game will start, it appears. No rain, snow or locusts - yet. But Alex Cora is batting leadoff.
Update: I take it back. We have a rain delay at the start.
Update 2:Though two errors behind him didn't help, Jose Lima was hit hard. If you can believe it, four out of five Dodger starting pitchers now have ERAs above 6.00! Meanwhile, Wilson Alvarez just completed his second inning of scoreless relief.
The game is official, now in the sixth inning. At this moment, Paul Lo Duca and Adrian Beltre have the only two Dodger hits, off Shawn Estes.
Update 3: Ugh. After six innings, the rain delay comes - too late to help. Although, I suppose, it could spare the rest of the bullpen.
