It did not occur until the 10th inning of the second game here, but the Dodgers took advantage of the Braves’ inexperience in a 5-3 victory.
With the go-ahead run at second base, Justin Turner lofted a flyball to center field that rookie outfielder Mallex Smith misplayed into an RBI double. Smith dove and missed the baseball. Then he slipped as it skittered in the grass. Chase Utley scored to give his team its first lead of the series.
Yasmani Grandal added an RBI single soon after.
