LOS ANGELES — Gavin Lux and Tony Gonsolin were both drafted by the Dodgers in 2016 and although both took different paths to get here, both were celebrated at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night after a mostly shared experience in 2018.
Lux and Gonsolin were honored for winning the Branch Rickey minor league player and pitcher of the year in the Dodgers minor league system, given annually to the top minor league performers in the system.
Tuesday was Gonsolin’s first visit to Dodger Stadium.
“Seeing this and experiencing the dugout and the view of what could be, it’s definitely something that I want to do,” he said.
