Not so successful today, losing 3-0.

ESPN - Cubs vs. Dodgers - Recap - June 06, 2008


Quote:
Hiroki Kuroda was so good that Derrek Lee broke his bat in frustration at home plate after striking out in the seventh. Danny Ardoin filled in for All-Star catcher Russell Martin with two RBIs, including one on a suicide squeeze.

Kuroda to Ardoin was one nice combination for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night.

Kuroda allowed four hits and struck out a career-high 11 in his first complete game, leading Los Angeles to a 3-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs.

"I had a great time," Ardoin said. "Whenever you go out there and compete with a guy who brought the intensity that he brought to the mound tonight, it's always fun. His slider was very effective tonight. It was a big league slider, definitely. We had a plan going in, and he was great at executing it."
Martin got a day off for only the second time this season, and joked he might be headed for more time off during Kuroda's starts.

"Hey, if he wants a personal catcher, he might as well if he's going to keep throwing like that," Martin said with a laugh. "It was fun to watch from the bench, but it definitely would have been fun to be a part of that one."
Kuroda (3-5) did not walk a batter in his 13th big league start, induced two double plays and allowed only one baserunner as far as third -- the result of his own throwing error.

It was the first shutout by a Dodgers pitcher Aug. 31, 2005, when Derek Lowe beat the Cubs 7-0 with a one-hitter at Wrigley Field. Kuroda became the first one on the staff to go the distance since Chad Billingsley's 10-2 win at Houston on July 23, 2007.

Kuroda retired 16 of his last 17 batters and lowered his ERA from 3.93 to 3.49.

All things considered it was still a pretty good series, a split isn't great, but it is still an improvement over how we have been playing on the road. Great game for Derosa!
