Wood's command off on 'one of those nights'

"It didn't take long," said manager Don Mattingly. "But these games count the same as 2-1 or 2-0. For [Wood], he's been pitching pretty solidly for us, kept us in most of the games he's pitched. Tonight just wasn't his night."

Wood was coming off seven scoreless innings in San Diego, followed by this.

"Baseball is funny that way sometimes," said Wood, 10-10 overall and 3-4 since his July 30 trade to the Dodgers from Atlanta. "I had probably the best one of the year last time and the worst one this time. It's a cruel game sometimes.
