Dodgers’ HIDEO NOMO (4-2, 2.82 ERA) vs. EXPOS’ CARLOS PEREZ (4-2, 4.00)

* Update-- The Dodgers were on a tear before Friday’s loss, but they must be wondering what life would be like without the Expos. If there were no Expos, the Dodgers would still have Pedro Martinez in their starting rotation or as their closer; left-fielder Henry Rodriguez as the left-handed power-hitter they sorely need, and outfielder Vladimir Guerrero, an outstanding young player. The Dodgers traded Martinez (6-0, 0.79 ERA) to the Expos for second baseman Delino Deshields, who played poorly for three seasons in Los Angeles before leaving for St. Louis.

Sunday, 10:30 a.m.-- Pedro Astacio (3-1, 2.04) vs Pedro Martinez (6-0, 0.79)

Monday, 10:30 a.m.-- Ramon Martinez (3-2, 3.79) vs Jeff Juden (3-0, 4.58)
