Dodgers minors: Kendall George leads Tulsa in 12-run effort
For the second game in a row, the Tulsa Drillers got to double digits in runs scored, this time needing every bit of it to take the 12-9 win over the Springfield Cardinals with some late game drama—one of three wins on Thursday from the Dodgers’ top four minor league teams. Player of the day […]
Dodgers notes: Alex Vesia, Andy Pages, stadium name change
Last season the Dodgers were able to complete their quest of two straight titles without the help of their best left-handed relief option in the World Series.
