The Los Angeles Dodgers look to snap their four-game losing streak on Wednesday afternoon, and they hope to also snap their month-long slump that has seen them drop 19 of their last 25 games. But they will have to do so against the Philadelphia Phillies, winners of four straight games.
Andre Ethier, who was activated from the disabled list on Friday, was given Wednesday off, which Don Mattingly called just a rest day. The Dodgers are also off on Thursday before opening a 10-game road trip in New York.
Wednesday's mound battle features a battle of Cy Young Award winners, as Clayton Kershaw faces off against Cliff Lee. Here are the starting lineups from Dodger Stadium:
Phillies (41-51)
Rollins SS
Victorino CF
Utley 2B

Pence RF
