<h3>Lowe looks for unusual support against Nationals</h3>



LA Dodgers (30-21) at Washington (21-31) 7:05 pm EDT

WASHINGTON (Ticker) -- Derek Lowe has to hope his team will startsupporting him like they do some of his fellow pitching mates.

The Los Angeles Dodgers will aim for their sixth win in sevengames when they continue a three-game set against the WashingtonNationals at RFK Stadium on Wednesday.

Lowe (4-5, 3.64 ERA) has two complete games and a 2.60 ERA infive May starts, but is only 2-2 due to a lack of support fromboth his lineup and his relievers. He allowed one run and fourhits over six innings on Friday against the Chicago Cubs,leaving with a four-run lead before the Dodgers' bullpenimploded.

On May 10, the righthander pitched eight scoreless framesagainst Florida but his offense could not muster any support forhim, ultimately leading to Lowe suffering a hard-luck loss in a3-0 defeat as the Marlins broke a scoreless tie in the ninth.

The sinkerballer is 2-0 with a 4.12 ERA in eight lifetimeappearances - including two starts against the franchiseformerly known as the Montreal Expos.

Los Angeles captured a 10-0 victory in Tuesday's series opener,as Brad penny threw 6 1/3 strong innings and Luis Gonzalezhomered and drove in three runs.

Mike Bacsik (1-0, 1.98) will make third start of the season forthe Nationals filling for the injured Jason Bergmann.

In his last outing, the lefthander yielded three runs and sevenhits in 7 2/3 innings of the Nationals' 4-3 triumph atCincinnati to earn his first major league win since 2004.

Bacsik has made only one start against the Dodgers in hiscareer, lasting six innings but not factoring into the decisionas a member of the New York Mets back in 2002.
