LOS ANGELES (AP) -Tired of getting brushed back in the NL championship series, Manny Ramirez and the Los Angeles Dodgers came out ready to fight their way back against Philadelphia.
Blake DeWitt’s bases-loaded triple off Jamie Moyer capped a five-run first inning, and the feisty Dodgers beat Philadelphia 7-2 on Sunday night to trim the Phillies’ lead to 2-1 in the best-of-seven series.
Hiroki Kuroda pitched effectively into the seventh for the Dodgers, who will try to even the series Monday night. Game 1 loser Derek Lowe, working on three days’ rest, will face Philadelphia’s Joe Blanton in a matchup of right-handers.
