Gerrit Cole held the Dodgers to three runs on six hits over 6 1/3 innings to earn his fifth win of the season in Thursday's 6-3 victory. He struck out three and walked two. The big right-hander has allowed three earned runs or fewer in nine of his 11 starts on the season. Cole has been consistent, but not dominant -- he hasn't yet held the opposing team off the board in a 2014 start. That dominance should come, as the 23-year-old has ace stuff but sophomore experience. Cole improves to 5-3 with a 3.80 ERA and 1.32 WHIP. He has a spectacular matchup on Tuesday in San Diego.
