Mystery surrounds Kenley Jansen's availability after Dodgers' loss

/ STAFF WRITER

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly was evasive when asked about his failure to use relief pitcher Kenley Jansen in Wednesday's 7-6 loss in Colorado, saying only that 'he wasn't available.' That situation came up 'during the game,' Mattingly said, offering no other specifics.

Things only got stranger when the Dodgers opened the clubhouse doors to the media following the game.
