On the day a judge told Mike Bolsinger he had no business suing the Houston Astros in California, the pitcher had a swift response: Fine, I’ll sue them in Texas.
The lawsuit filed by Bolsinger, the pitcher who claimed the Astros’ cheating ruined his career, was dismissed Wednesday by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Robert Draper.
On Tuesday, Bolsinger signed with the Long Island Ducks of the independent Atlantic League. The stint there would mark his first time playing for a North American team since his ill-fated 2017 season. He played the 2018 and 2019 seasons in Japan and did not play last year.
