The Los Angeles Dodgers pretty much got man handled by the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night by the score of 8-1.  The Dodgers could only muster one run against the Reds pitching staff as their own pitching staff served up eight runs to the Reds.

Hong-Chih Kuo started the game for the Dodgers but only lasted 3.2 innings as he allowed eight hits and five earned runs.  Just a terrible performance by Kuo as he put the Dodgers in a very big hole early in the game.

Esteban Loaiza also gave up two runs as he pitched in relief.   Jonathan Broxton pitched one inning and let two runs scored even though only one of them was earned.  It doesn’t matter when your entire pitching sucks like the Dodgers did on Tuesday night, you are going to lose the ballgame.

Rafael Furcal was the only Dodgers player to record an RBI.  Furcal hit a RBI ground rule double in the third inning and that was all the Dodgers could get against the Reds.  Another terribler performance by the Dodgers hitters.
