The Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday reinstated first baseman Adrian Gonzalez from the 10-day disabled list and optioned infielder/outfielder Scott Van Slyke to Triple-A Oklahoma City.
González, who was placed on the disabled list for the first time in his career on May 5 with right elbow soreness, appeared in two rehab games with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga, going 3-for-6 (.500) with one run, two doubles and two RBI. In 29 games with the Dodgers this season, González has hit .255 (24-for-94) with six runs, five doubles and 11 RBI. Prior to his stint on the disabled list, Gonzalez had played 1,833 games without a trip to the DL, which was the most among active players.
