The Dodgers slumbered through half the game, awakening with a bolt of energy that revitalized the fans and players within the grand old ballpark.
The Dodgers were three outs from winning a three-game series in which two of the opposing starters were Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg. They were three outs from their first victory in a game in which they did not score first. They were three outs from the .500 mark, with their next three games against the Miami Marlins, a team that intentionally self-destructed in the offseason.
And with Jansen, whose dominance remains to be rediscovered.
