Roberts leaned on Brett Honeywell who provided the Dodgers with three scoreless innings. 'I knew what my job was there, to keep us in the game,' Honeywell said.
In contrast to their reliance on the bullpen to avoid elimination against the Padres, the Dodgers took a different approach with the Mets by assigning Landon Knack to a bulk role.
'Knack was going to have to pitch at some point in time,' Roberts said. 'So whether you get through, you have four high-leverage guys available, right?'
Hudson experienced some fatigue toward the end of the regular season but was otherwise healthy. Unfortunately, he suffered an MCL sprain last year, sidelining him from the playoffs.
