DODGERS 5, ASTROS 2
Aside from Jonathan Broxton loading the bases in the ninth inning, tonight's game was a breath of fresh air after a stale All-Star week. Clayton Kershaw was stellar, throwing seven innings of two-hit ball. Should he have pitched the eighth? Maybe, but I'd rather save him for the stretch run. Orlando Hudson went 3-for-4 with two runs, and Matt Kemp had two RBIs and scored a heads-up run in the sixth when Mike Hampton accidentally threw the ball away in frustration. In the end, it wasn't a laugher, but it was good for some smiles.

Happy birthday, Joe!
Four disabled veterans representing an organization called SoldierCare threw out ceremonial first pitches. They received an extended standing ovation from the crowd — a moving moment that was better than the game itself.
Dodgers photographer Jill Weisleder captures the moment.
Heroes of all kinds.
