Dodgers Beat Rockies, 2-1, In Rain-Shortened Game
DENVER (AP) — Brett Anderson pitched five solid innings, Adrian Gonzalez had an RBI double and threw out a baserunner at home, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies 2-1 Friday night in a game called in the top of the sixth inning because of rain.
Rainy weather delayed the start for 64 minutes, and with one out and the bases loaded against Eddie Butler in the Dodgers' half of the sixth, the game was halted again amid another pelting rain. An hour, 40 minutes later, umpires called it.
Anderson (2-1) allowed one run — none earned — on six hits in his first appearance against his former team. He spent last season with the Rockies but was limited to eight starts due to injury,
Butler (2-3) allowed two runs on five hits in 5 1-3 innings. He walked four and struck out three.
