The Dodgers faced one of the best pitchers in baseball and lived to tell about it, thanks to some timely hitting and an elite pitcher of their own.
The alarm bells sounded for the Dodgers in the first inning, thanks walks by Max Muncy and Cody Bellinger, sandwiching Justin Turner getting hit by a pitch.
All three hits against Gausman were off his fastball, including a home run by Max Muncy in the third inning, Muncy’s seventh home run in nine games against San Francisco this season.
A double by Steven Duggar brought home the only tally against Buehler, whose 113 pitches are his second-most ever, and most in a regular season game.
Dodgers pitchers have allowed eight runs during the five-game winning streak.
“I didn’t have a feel for the ball today, on my cutter,” Jansen said.
