Well, it wasn’t necessarily pretty or polished, but the Dodgers did what needed to be done against the San Diego Padres, taking two game out of three and re-extending their lead in the NL West. The Dodgers now lead the division by 3.5 games with 10 games to go in the regular season.
As we’ve talked a lot about recently, the Dodgers still have some pitching issues to contend with. Closer Kenley Jansen had another shaky outing where he almost blew the game again, but somehow managed to get the last out with the bases he himself loaded.
