The Dodgers are back on the road Tuesday, traveling to Kissimmee and the Disney Wide World of Sports complex to play the Atlanta Braves. Scott Erickson, who appears a lock to make the starting rotation as a non-roster invitee, will start for the Dodgers. Erickson has allowed one run on three hits over nine innings with six strikeouts, two walks and an opponents' batting average of .097. The Dodgers lost to the Braves, 3-2, when they played at Cracker Jack Field on March 4 and lost to Atlanta, 9-8, the previous day in Vero Beach.
Horacio Ramirez will make his third Grapefruit League start on Tuesday afternoon against the Dodgers at Cracker Jack Stadium. The southpaw's left shoulder has appeared sound as he has limited opponents to just one hit in his first three innings this spring.
Closer Dan Kolb will follow Ramirez, and he will continue working on his recently located changeup. He tossed a perfect inning in his spring debut, and then allowed the Astros four runs in one inning last Friday.
