With the rotation not reliably going deep into games, the Dodgers have leaned heavily on long relievers. The team recalled righty Bobby Miller, who gave up one run in two innings vs. the Mets, to give them additional coverage in the bullpen on Saturday -- a move that necessitated optioning Matt Sauer, who had pitched three innings the night before.

The New York Mets rallied back to force extra innings with three runs in the ninth inning on Friday night before losing to the Los Angeles Dodgers, 3-0, in a 13-inning game that lasted a whopping six hours.
