Scott Van Slyke was the hero last night. His beautiful three-run home run in the bottom of the ninth off Miami closer Steve Cishek gave the Dodgers yet another joyous come from behind victory. The Dodgers now have a five game lead in the NL West, and have won four in a row. Their mastery at home continues as well, as the club is 14-2 at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers will put their four game win streak on the line against the Fish in game two.
Tonight they are expected to give the ball to right hander Mike Bolsinger.
