Brett Anderson takes streak into series opener with Braves

LOS ANGELES -- Brett Anderson takes a streak into Monday night's game against the Braves, but it has nothing to do with the Dodgers left-hander's performance on the mound.

Anderson has been pitching just fine in May, with a 1.99 ERA, a 2.75 FIP, a 2.78 xFIP and a 76.9-percent strikeout rate in four starts this month. After 16 strikeouts in his first six starts (a 12.7-percent strikeout rate), Anderson has 15 strikeouts in his last two starts (29.4 percent).

Monday night's forecast calls for no rain at Dodger Stadium.
