A solo home run from Will Smith was all the Los Angeles Dodgers could muster through eight innings on Wednesday night. They nonetheless were two outs from a second consecutive win against the Toronto Blue Jays, only for Kenley Jansen to allow a game-tying home run.
While Jansen’s sixth blown save of the season has added to reason for concern, the Dodgers came away with a walk-off win thanks to Max Muncy’s home run in the 10th inning. The walk-off victory was their 11th this season; Smith and Muncy have delivered two apiece.
Although his latest wasn’t a game-winner, Smith now has 12 home runs through his first 28 career games, which ties the MLB record that the Philadelphia Phillies’ Rhys Hoskins set in 2017.
