Dodgers stumble in Colorado



Dan Haren got touched up for five runs on four hits in five innings of work last night as the Dodgers dropped a 10-4 decision to the Rockies despite out-hitting Colorado 16-9.

Yasiel Puig hit his first homer since July and Justin Turner went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a pair of doubles filling in at short for Hanley Ramirez, who sat with a sprained elbow.

San Francisco posted a 2-1 win over Arizona to cut LA’s lead in the NL West to three games with 11 to play.

The Dodgers will send rookie Carlos Frias to the mound today in the series rubber match. Frias is getting the start in place of Hyun-Jin Ryu, sidelined with a shoulder injury. Ryu had a cortisone injection earlier this week and will test the shoulder later this week.

Puig, who got in a dugout dust up with Matt Kemp earlier this week about not scoring from second on a Kemp hit, is showing signs of coming out of a slump.
