Game Notes

Greg Maddux, Padres quiet the Dodgers 1-0.

One day after Los Angeles pounds San Diego for 11 runs, Maddux amd 4 relievers combine to blank the Dodgers on 5 hits. Maddux goes 5 innings, allowing just 2 hits and 1 walk, while earning his 349th career win, one day before his 42nd birthday.

Chad Billingsley does his best to match the Padres' pitchers, striking out 8 while allowing 4 hits in 5 innings. But San Diego turns a leadoff walk and a double into the game's only run when Paul McAnulty's fly ball scores Jim Edmonds in the 4th inning.

Starting pitchers:
Padres - Maddux
Dodgers - Billingsley

Winning pitcher: Maddux (2-0)
