Dodgers hope struggling slugger Max Muncy and return of pitcher Tony Gonsolin boost lineup, rotation
- On Wednesday, the Los Angeles Dodgers secured a 12-7 win over the Miami Marlins, sweeping the three-game series and extending their winning streak to five games.
- The Dodgers' win followed Tony Gonsolin's return from 20 months of rehabilitation after Tommy John surgery and Max Muncy hitting his first home run of the season in his 29th game.
- Gonsolin pitched six innings with nine strikeouts, three runs allowed, and no walks, while the Dodgers' offense produced 17 hits including contributions from Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and Stowers.
- Manager Dave Roberts called Gonsolin's return "huge," noting it revitalized the starting rotation and contributed to the offense averaging 10.2 runs over the last five games.
- The Dodgers aim to build on this momentum during a 10-game road trip, facing the Cubs after going 2-3 on their previous journey to Texas and Chicago.
