Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen had an eventful ninth inning Tuesday, giving up two hits and one walk but holding the opposition scoreless while striking out two to earn his second save in his team's 3-2 win over the Padres.
Jansen had no breathing room with this save opportunity and came close to squandering the lead, alternating singles and outs against the first four batters before striking out his first batter of the game, walking the next to load the bases and closing things out with a swinging strikeout of Padres catcher Nick Hundley. Jansen owns a 3.86 ERA and 4:2 K:BB ratio in 2 2/3 innings.
