Manny Booed in Los Angeles After Bad Play in Left Field

The honeymoon appears to be over in Los Angeles, where Manny Ramirez was treated to a round of boos after showing questionable effort getting to a ball in a tie game in the eighth inning on Sunday.

With the score at 1-1, Ramirez let an Aramis Ramirez hit get past him, allowing the Cubs third baseman to reach third with nobody out. He would later score on a Kosuke Fukudome double to give the Cubs a lead they would never relinquish, eventually winning 3-1. 

Earlier in the game, Ramirez bobbled a bloop single, allowing runners to advance an extra base.

"It's a long season and that's going to happen," Ramirez, who went 0-for-4 at the plate, told The Associated Press. "We're trying to hold the lead. We won three out of four against Chicago, so it's good. We've got to keep going and try to beat everyone."

The loss, combined with a Rockies win, shrunk the Dodgers' lead in the NL West to 3 1/2 games.
