Everything went well for the Dodgers Sunday, except for that one little thing, and even that turned out OK.
They scored their first run without a hit, made several nice defensive plays and got another solid start from Brett Anderson. They also scored three insurance runs on a crazy throwing error, and won the game, 5-1, over the Padres at Petco Park.
It was their 11th victory in 13 games, raised their record to a season-high 20 games over .500 (78-58) and maintained their 7½-game lead over the Giants in the National League West.
All very good for the Dodgers.
