But Johnson is 5-0 with a 1.77 ERA in eight career starts in Dodger Stadium, including his most recent effort, an eight-inning, six-hit, no-earned-run effort in a 6-3 Diamondback victory May 31. Nomo, who gave up one run and three hits in seven innings of a no-decision against St. Louis on Saturday, has not lost in his last 10 starts.
