Lima Time!
May 30, 2004
This wasn’t a bad game to go to for my first Dodger game of the year. Jose Lima, of all people, three eight innings of shutout ball and the Dodgers offense came alive for 10 runs. There were home runs for Beltre and Encarnacion, a 4-4 game from LoDuca and a really dazzling defensive play from Alex Cora where he dove for a ball, flipped it to Cesar Izturis, who then threw it to first to get the runner. Topping it all off, Eric Gagne came in from the bullpen to strike out the side in the top of the ninth to end it.
It wasn’t a very tense or exciting game, but when your team has been on a terrible losing streak a blowout victory is about as good as it gets.
