The Los Angeles Dodgers appeared on the verge of salvaging a split in their series with the San Francisco Giants, only for Kenley Jansen to blow his third consecutive save and second in as many nights.
Not to be lost in the defeat was another stellar performance by Walker Buehler, who gave up just one run on five hits over 7.1 innings of work with nine strikeouts.
After striking out the side in the seventh inning, Buehler returned to the mound for the top of the eighth. He began the inning with a groundout before allowing a one-out single to Darin Ruf on an 0-2 count.
