I've added links to LAist and to its sports coverage, which will be anchored by Phil Wallace of the Phil Wallace Weblog. Today, Wallace notes the Dodger hire of Greg McElroy as Chief Sales of Our Soul Officer. ...
John Hill has taken his Dodger Hill site over to the Most Valuable Network, where his work is now titled Chavez Ravine. Today's entry comments on the Dodgers winning ways with Odalis Perez and Adrian Beltre injured. ...
DodgerDugout.com looks promising for a quick snapshot of the Dodgers.

In passing, I might add that Scully was critical of Green not running hard to first base on his first-inning RBI single, which allowed the Astros to throw him out at second even after Carlos Beltran missed the cutoff man.
