Tony Gonsolin continues stellar start as Dodgers beat Angels to open Freeway Series

LA Times  

Dodgers pitcher Tony Gonsolin throws to the plate during the first inning against the Angels on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium. “He’s scratching the surface on some really good things.” Yet, it was Roberts’ decision to remove Gonsolin with one out in the seventh, and the pitcher’s frustrated reaction, that perhaps best illustrated the current state of the Dodgers’ season. “But for me … I’ve also got to manage the next start, the ensuing starts, through October.” The Dodgers will likely have more such nights as they try to compensate for Buehler’s absence. Angels’ Shohei Ohtani is tagged out at second by Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux as he tries to steal during the fourth inning on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium. He maintained he is “as confident as you can be” about returning this season — even after having an unrelated arthroscopic procedure Monday to remove a bone spur, an operation he decided to have now because it won’t affect his timeline to return — but also acknowledged the recovery process can be “a tricky thing.” “You never know what’s going to happen on the other side of these things,” he added.
