Kenley Jansen was activated on Friday from the 15-day DL and made an immediate impact.
Today, the #Dodgers reinstated RHP Kenley Jansen from the 15-day DL and optioned LHP Daniel Coulombe to @okc_dodgers.

Jansen came on in the 8th inning and recorded 4 strikeouts due to Carlos Gonzalez reaching on a pass ball. One hell of a opening outing if you ask me.
Although it was not a save opportunity it was a great chance for Jansen to get his feet wet before resuming his closer role.
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reported his thoughts on Jansen’s return.
kenley jansen return is huge for dodgers. one of best closers in game, & one of most under-rated players.
