Nick Gonzales, Pirates shoot for sweep of Dodgers

Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Nick Gonzales has made himself at home in the majors since being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on May 10.

Gonzales slapped a two-run double to ignite a seven-run second inning in Pittsburgh’s 10-6 victory on Wednesday. He also had a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning

Dodgers set for first look at Pirates’ Paul Skenes

The Pittsburgh Pirates made the most of one powerful swing — a third-inning solo homer by Jack Suwinski — on Tuesday to hand the Los Angeles Dodgers their fourth shutout loss of the season.

Rested Austin Gomber looks to lead Rockies to series win vs. Dodgers

Six days after he was scratched from a start because of a sore elbow, Colorado Rockies left-hander Austin Gomber will be back on the mound Sunday to face the Los Angeles Dodgers. Instead of pushing back his start a few days, the Rockies skipped it completely to line him up in the road game against the first-place Dodgers on 10 days of rest and back in his regular rotation slot. “No restrictions there.

Ezequiel Tovar, Rockies aim to derail Dodgers again

The Colorado Rockies have a full head of steam now, and they have two chances to claim their third consecutive series victory.

Ezequiel Tovar had a home run among his three hits Friday as the Rockies earned a 4-1 victory over the Dodgers. It ended a seven-game losing streak at Los Angeles and came after

Walker Buehler, Dodgers out to extend Rockies’ road woes

One late-inning rally earlier this week seems to have the Los Angeles Dodgers back on track, with a return home set for Friday against the Colorado Rockies. The Dodgers were amid a season-worst five-game losing streak and staring at a sixth in a row in the opening game of a doubleheader Tuesday. But they rallied for a run in the ninth inning on a bunt from the struggling Chris Taylor against the New York Mets,

Dodgers trying to ‘get greedy’ against struggling Mets

Asked Tuesday afternoon if a doubleheader would be good or bad for the slumping Los Angeles Dodgers, manager Dave Roberts grinned. “I’ll tell you after tonight,” he said. The twin bill turned out to be good for the Dodgers, who swept the Mets to continue what has turned into a nightmare of a season for New York. Los Angeles has a shot to sweep the three-game set with the host Mets when the teams collide

Dodgers aim to end 5-game skid in series opener vs. Mets

That will be baseball’s perennial superpower, the Los Angeles Dodgers. The host Mets will look to build on a dramatic win on Sunday, while the Dodgers will seek to end a five-game skid when the teams begin a three-game

Reds vie to sweep Dodgers, win season series
