Pitching lapses plague Dodgers again

For the second consecutive game, a Dodgers starter got into a jam and exited in the fifth inning of a close game. And once more, the Angels left the inning with the lead courtesy of the Dodgers bullpen. Thursday's 7-4 loss at Angel Stadium was the latest in a rough stretch for the team's relievers, who have allowed 13 earned runs in their last five games.
