The Dodgers and Brewers have split the first two games of their four-game series. With Corbin Burnes pitching for Milwaukee tomorrow, today’s game takes on a little added importance for Los Angeles within the context of the series. The Dodgers come in with an MLB-best 80-35 record and hold a 17-game lead in the NL West. The Brewers, in second place in the NL Central, are 62-53.
The Dodgers will send All-Star Tony Gonsolin to the mound today for his 22nd start of the season. After a couple rough starts surrounding the All-Star break, Gonsolin has been outstanding his last two times out, combining for 11.
