The Los Angeles Dodgers certainly did not need a break in their season and will be looking to keep rolling Thursday against the Houston Astros.

Manny Ramirez went 3 for 3 on Sunday and scored twice to continue his torrid pace since returning from a 50-game drug suspension, helping the Dodgers finish a 6-3 road trip for their best start in 32 years at 56-32.

Thursday, L.A. will hand the ball to Randy Wolf, who is 4-3 on the season. He had a strong performance in his last outing as the Dodgers beat the Mets 11-2.

The Astros will be sad that the Washington Nationals are no longer their opponent. Houston ended the first half of the season with a 5-0 win and now go from the worst team in baseball to the best.

Wandy Rodriguez will take the hill in hopes of starting the second half off with an upset win.
