Post-Game 158 Thread: Vesia and Henriquez Try To Throw This Away, But New Bullpen Arms (and Tommy Edman) Earn The Win Anyway

This game was exhausting.

DODGERS 5, DIAMONDBACKS 4 (11)

No one will remember Blake Snell's six innings of one-run ball tonight. And they may not even remember scoreless frames from two Dodger starters, Roki Sasaki and Clayton Kershaw, to contribute to the cause.

But after Alex Vesia and Edgardo Henriquez' ineptitude in the eighth inning to cede the 4-1 lead and let the Snakes tie the game; and after pinch runner Hyeseong Kim hesitates at second and is thrown out at the plate in the top of the 10th inning--the Dodgers had some unlikely solid performances from the bullpen: Blake Treinen, who came in with the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the 10th, and got the final out; and Justin Wrobleski, who pitched a scoreless 11th to earn the victory.

Also, Tommy Edman had a two-out, two-strike single to left-center which scored Freddie Freeman from third in the top of the 11th, scoring the game's winning run. Edman also had a solid play in the field to end the ninth inning for Kershaw.

No Tanner Scott tonight, so we actually won this game. Magic number is at 1.

And big credit to SportsNet LA's Jessica Mendoza for noticing Kim's hesitation at second immediately and calling it out. She did great on color commentary tonight and I love to hear her insight in the booth.
