Victory Pushes Dodgers Record to 68-65
Chris Brown added some punch to the Los Angeles offense, helping them outmuscle the New York Mets, 10-7. In the game, Brown, who is a two-time All-Star, went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Bill Pulsipher got the win, improving to 5-2. He pitched 7.2 innings, giving up 6 hits and 7 runs, while striking out 7 and walking 8. Los Angeles is now 68-65, while New York is 76-56.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 1st and 3rd and one out in the top of the fourth inning. That's when center fielder Torii Hunter drew a walk. The Dodgers went on to win.

"Enjoyed this one," Brown told the Los Angeles Daily News. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
