Dodgers at Phillies: August 10th through August 12th


Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday 7:05

Records: Dodgers 58-54, 4th Place in NL West (7 games behind the Padres); Phillies 62-49, 2nd Place in NL East (1½ games behind the Braves)

2006 Topps #109 Jayson Werth

Former Dodgers with the Phillies: How is it August 10th, and this is the first time the Dodgers and Phillies have faced each other all season? Something's wrong with that. These teams last faced each other in the 2009 NLCS, a series won by the Phillies, 4 games to 1.

The Phils' roster is littered with former Dodgers: Reliever Danys Baez (2006), infielder Wilson Valdez (2007), outfielder Jayson Werth (2004-2005), manager Charlie Manuel (1974-1975), and of course coach Davey Lopes (1972-1981). Also, a recent ex-Phillie, Juan Castro, has recently signed a minor league deal with the Dodgers. If he makes it back to the Majors, it will be his third stint in Dodger Blue.

Dodgers Probables: Vicente Padilla, Chad Billingsley, Clayton Kershaw
Phillies Probables: Kyle Kendrick, Roy Oswalt, Joe Blanton
