The Dodgers have made headlines for all the players they have acquired over the last month.

On Thursday night, the first four batters in their order were playing for different teams a month ago -- Nick Punto, Shane Victorino, Adrian Gonzalez and Hanley Ramirez.

Los Angeles entered action on Friday 4.5 games back of San Francisco in the NL West. On July 15, they were just 1.5 games back of first place.
