The Phillies opened a 3-game set with the Dodgers in L.A. on Monday night in search of their 5th straight series win. For some reason, everyone seems eager to just get to tomorrow night’s game, but let’s recap this one anyway.
Tony Gonsolin toed the slab for the home team, making his second start of the year after working his way back from injury. After an uneventful top of the first inning, Taijuan Walker took the mound for the Phillies. His forearm appeared fine, striking out former MVPs Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman to begin his outing.
