The Dodgers are playing the game under official protest. It appears Mark Sweeney was announced as a pinch hitter for Pablo Ozuna when the Manager Joe Torre really wanted to use Jeff Kent as a pinch hitter instead. But home plate umpire Chris Guccione had already signaled Sweeney in, and the Dodgers thus are down a player since they decided to use Kent anyway. Kent ended up striking out.

C'mon, is Mark Sweeney even really a player? Let's be honest here...
