Taking Notes Jayson Werth?

Now THAT'S how to stick it to your former team. From Joseph Santoliquito...

Dodgers left-hander Randy Wolf was masterful in holding the Phillies to three hits in Wednesday's 9-2 victory before 45,273 at Citizens Bank Park.

The win snapped the Dodgers' two-game skid and the seven-game losing streak they had at Citizens Bank Park against the Phillies, dating back to Aug. 23, 2007.

Wolf, meanwhile, mowed down the Phils, making just one mistake -- a second-inning solo homer by Jimmy Rollins. Wolf also yielded two doubles to Carlos Ruiz. Otherwise, he had arguably his best start of the season, going six innings, giving up three hits and striking out eight. Wolf, who threw a season-high 113 pitches, never allowed more than one baserunner in any of his six innings.

Meanwhile, James Loney channeled his inner Wally Moon and rang up his first round tripper of the season to put the Dodgers ahead for good. Congrats to Loney, but, as evident by his head-hanging after making contact, that would have been just another fly out (345 ft.) in most parks. I don't mean to rain on Loney's parade, but lets be honest.

Russell J., you're up.

In the "Terrible Timing For A Slump" department we turn to Andre Ethier who, since the suspension of Ramirez, is hitting .103 after going 0 for 5 tonight. 27 RBI's in 35 games speaks for itself; however, for someone who many (ok, me) thought would carry the team in Ramirez's absence it's somewhat of a minor letdown.

Regardless, the Dodgers once again posses the best record in baseball. Don't forget about tomorrow's 10:05AM PST pitching matchup of Chad Billingsley and Cole Hamels. Glad I got the day off from work.
