-- The Times’ Dylan Hernandez examines the Dodgers’ failure to hold on to a 3-0 lead Tuesday against Tim Lincecum and the Giants.

-- LA Weekly’s Gene Maddaus (via Kevin Roderick) wonders whom to vote for in Frank McCourt being sued by his previous law firm to basically prove they’re not incompetent. Writes Maddaus: ‘But the evidence suggests that Bingham’s lawyers really are incompetent.’

Maddaus thinks Jamie McCourt would have won even without the messy post-nup.

-- ESPN/LA’s Tony Jackson writes that Tuesday was hardly the first time Chad Billingsley has struggled with a lead.
