3. Dodgers closer, Kenley Jansen, is wanting some of that redemption, too

Third game, top of the ninth, the Dodgers leading 2-1, and he blew it:

⅓ inning pitched, three hits, three earned runs, two walks, and one strikeout. He got yanked with the basses loaded.

The fair weather Dodgers fans booed him as he exited.

Curiously, Wilmer Flores' first hit, ever, off of Jansen was that go-ahead two-run homer. It may not have been a walk off home run, but it was just as sweet, Baby!

Tonight's final game is the last time Dodgers and the Giants play in LA this season. That is, until the postseason playoffs.
