Baseball: Los Angeles Dodgers 11 Pittsburgh 0

Luis Cruz went 3-for-5 with three RBI to back Chad Billingsley\'s eight shutout innings Tuesday in the Los Angeles Dodgers\' 11-0 rout of Pittsburgh. Cruz delivered a two-run single in the fourth inning to hand the Dodgers a 4-0 lead and made it 5-0 an inning later with another run-producing hit. Hanley Ramirez added three hits, including a two-run double in the ninth, and Andre Ethier knocked in a pair for the Dodgers, who took their second victory in a four-game series. Billingsley (9-9) baffled the Pirates on five hits, issued only one walk and struck out five in notching his fifth consecutive win. The Dodgers -- who came into the game tied with the San Francisco Giants for first place in the National League West -- notched their fifth win in six games. Pirates starter Kevin Correia (9-7) was roughed up for six runs (five earned) on seven hits over six innings. Pittsburgh lost for the eighth straight time against Los Angeles.
