Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts sees more hope than cause for concern from Edwin Diaz's second consecutive blown save.
With the Dodgers having another one-run lead, Edwin Diaz collapsed. He came in during the bottom of the ninth inning, with LA up 1-0 and needing to win a game to snap a seven-game winning streak.
He allowed two triples right off the bat, immediately giving up the lead and putting a runner on third with no outs.
The game looked over at that point, but through sheer will and some luck, Diaz got out of the jam, stranding the runner on third.
