After averaging 93-94 mph earlier this season, the 33-year-old Jansen rarely got above 90 mph on those 30 pitches. Asked bluntly this week if Jansen could be trusted in a high-leverage situation right now, Roberts responded, โ€œCertainly leverage matters.

โ€œItโ€™s going to take a while to wind down from that one,โ€ said Bellinger, the 2019 NL MVP. โ€œCertainly turned out being the difference in the game,โ€ Padres rookie manager Jayce Tingler said. Leading off the next inning, Bellinger went after a low pitch and drove it 433 feet to center to make it 4-1. When the Dodgers went to bat after Bellinger's catch, Justin Turner had a sacrifice fly and Muncy his second RBI single to make it 6-3.
