The Dodgers took care of small business final night as they dismantled their division rivals from down south, 8-1. Tony Gonsolin attained his 12th win of the season and pitched 5 shutout innings. The bullpen did their position as they only allowed a single strike and one run.
The Dodgers’ offense exploded in the early innings and by no means seemed back. After the match, reporters ended up interviewing Trea Turner who went 2-for-5 scoring on a single run. Dodgers reporter Kirsten Watson asked Turner what he imagined about Juan Soto and Josh Bell in a Padres uniform. Let us just say brown isn’t their coloration.
Day-to-day Trea was clearly joking and wished nothing at all but the greatest for his previous teammates in Soto and Bell. But, he may possibly have a issue due to the fact the Padres uniform looks like they took a site out of UPS’ ebook.
The Dodgers have been in the bidding for Soto all through the trade deadline and obviously fell quick of buying him. San Diego acquired much better on paper, but we’ll see if that translates into good results in October.
The Dodgers are at the moment 13 ½ online games above San Diego heading into Saturday night time, leaving them much more poised for a Wild Card spot than winning the division.
Video game 2 of their 3 sport weekend collection is back again on tonight at Chavez Ravine.
