LOS ANGELES — With “Welcome to the Jungle” blaring like the old days, Eric Gagné took the mound and fired a strike Wednesday night on the 20th anniversary of recording his 84th consecutive save for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
“I don’t know what he’s going to throw and I don’t want him to embarrass me,” said Roberts, who played with Gagné from 2002-04. Gagné signed with the Dodgers as a free agent in 1995 and began his career as a starter. But after struggling in that role, he was converted into a reliever. That December, Gagné was linked to baseball’s steroids scandal after he was named in the Mitchell Report. In 2010, he admitted to using human growth hormone, saying it was to recover from a knee injury.
