Ryu picked up win number 12 after going for six innings. Ryu surrendered six hits, giving up three earned runs while striking out seven batters.

When Ryu has received five days rest in his MLB career as he did tonight, he is 10-2 with a 2.68 ERA. JP Howell took over in relief and got the game to former Giants closer and now Dodgers set up man Brian Wilson. Wilson worked his way around a walk and a load chorus of boos from his former fans, getting through the eighth inning scoreless and over to Kenley Jansen. Jansen struck out the side in the ninth for save number 30 this season. Jansen is the seventh Dodgers pitcher to record 30 saves in a season.
