2B Orlando Hudson, who came in with a .067 (1-for-15) career average against Rockies RHP Jason Marquis, was out of the lineup and didn't appear in the game. It marked just the second time in the Dodgers' 78 games this season that Hudson didn't play. Hudson, whose history of injuries was such a concern to Dodgers officials when they signed him that most of the money in his one-year contract is in the form of incentives based on plate appearances, has come to bat 354 times this season, thus far adding $1.7 million to his $3 million base salary (plus a $380,000 bonus that is deferred) for this season.
