The Los Angeles Dodgers couldn’t solve San Diego Padres starting pitcher Randy Wolf on Wednesday night as the Padres defeated the Dodgers 4-1.  The Dodgers struggled all night long at the plate and were only able to record five hits in the game and one run.

The one run in the game came in the fourth inning on a Andy LaRoche solo home run.  Other then that one hit, the Dodgers struggled all game long and never made much of a threat to the Padres.

Chad Billingsley took the loss after pitching seven innings and giving up eight hits and all four of the Padres runs.  Billingsley gave up two home runs early in the game which was a supirse because it is so hard to hit home runs at Petco.  Hong-Chih Kuo pitched the eighth inning and did not have any problems for the Dodgers.

The Doders and Padres will play on Thursday which will be the rubber game of the three game series.
