It took 16 tries but the Pittsburgh Pirates finally beat the Los Angeles Dodgers last night at PNC Park. Are they going to make it two in a row tonight against the NL West leaders? I doubt it. Los Angeles rarely loses back-to-back games and will have Tony Gonsolin toeing the rubber. Gonsolin has been throwing flames, with a record of 2-0, an ERA of only 1.64 and a 1.09 WHIP. On the flip side, Bryse Wilson will take the bump for the Bucs. Wilson had success in 2020 against the Dodgers in his only outing against them in the NLCS when he was a Brave, but not tonight. Wilson comes in at 0-1, with a 3.79 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. The Dodgers mustered just 1 run in yesterday’s loss which is a rarity for a team that is averaging over 5 runs per game.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES DODGERS
