<h3>Well-traveled Durbin gets shot in the Phillies rotation</h3>

Philadelphia (46-46) at LA Dodgers (53-40) 10:10 pm EDT

LOS ANGELES (Ticker) - In a span of just over two weeks at thebeginning of the season, J.D. Durbin somehow made his waythrough four different organizations. Based on his numbers,that's not so hard to believe.


The pitching-starved Philadelphia Phillies will give Durbinanother shot at starting on Tuesday when they visit the LosAngeles Dodgers.


Durbin (0-2, 13.50 ERA) entered spring training with theMinnesota Twins, was claimed off waivers by the ArizonaDiamondbacks and released on April 5 after allowing seven runsin 2/3 of an inning. The Boston Red Sox took a chance next, butcut the righthander before bringing him up, allowing thePhillies to claim him on April 13.


He was recalled from the minors on June 29 and allowed six runsand eight hits in 4 2/3 innings. Philadelphia kept him around,and after three effective bullpen appearances, the 25-year-oldDurbin will make his third career start.


The Dodgers will counter with Mark Hendrickson (4-4, 3.92). Thelanky lefthander has bounced back and forth between the bullpenand the rotation this season, and has performed admirably inboth situations.


Hendrickson made two straight starts before the All-Star Game,going 1-1 while allowing two earned runs in five innings in eachcontest. He got a win out of the bullpen on Saturday on thestrength of two scoreless frames at San Francisco.

The Dodgers got a pair of three-run homers from Jeff Kent andMatt Kemp on Monday night and cruised to a 10-3 victory.
