Tony Gonsolin suffers his worst major league start, allowing all seven Giants runs in the Dodgers’ third straight loss to San Francisco.
LOS ANGELES ― The Dodgers began their three-game series with the third-best record in the National League. They ended it with the third-best record in their own division.
The Giants secured their first sweep at Dodger Stadium in a series of three or more games since Aug. 20-22, 2012. Manager Dave Roberts said Gonsolin was not “out of the woods” after experiencing similar soreness following that game. Because their bullpen had thrown more than 14 innings over the previous three games, a bullpen game was not an option Sunday. And rather than recall a pitcher from the minor leagues and start Gonsolin on Tuesday in Anaheim, the Dodgers trusted the ball to Gonsolin on regular rest Sunday.
Gonsolin walked Estrada, who stole second base. Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts made an outstanding stop on a ground ball to his left and threw Estrada out at third base. But Gonsolin allowed back-to-back doubles by Yastrzemski and Luis Matos, before Matos scored on a Blake Sabol single.
