Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen ran into some trouble in the ninth inning Wednesday against the Rockies, but he was able to limit the damage in a 10-8 win.
Jansen walked the first batter of the inning and then allowed an RBI single to bring him around to score after a stolen base. Faced with the tying run at the plate and one out, Jansen induced two fly ball outs to end the threat and earn his eighth save of the season.
Jansen blew his previous save opportunity. He has eight saves in 11 chances this season, with a 2.55 ERA. Jansen has 59 strikeouts and only seven walks in 42 1/3 innings.
