Dodgers play to a tie for second consecutive game

March 4, 2023

THE GAME: The Angels scored twice in the bottom of the ninth inning to tie the Dodgers, 2-2, Friday afternoon at Tempe Diablo Stadium in Tempe, Ariz.

PITCHING REPORT: Right-hander Tony Gonsolin made his first spring start and went 2⅓ scoreless innings. But he allowed three hits (including a double to Luis Rengifo) and walked two. … The Angels didn’t have a hit against Nick Robertson, Justin Bruihl and Robbie Erlin. … Left-hander James Jones walked two and gave up a two-run double to Myles Emmerson for the tying runs in the ninth inning.

HITTING REPORT: The Dodgers drew 10 walks in the game, including five in the fourth inning when they scored both of their runs. Trayce Thompson and Jonny DeLuca drew bases-loaded walks to force in the runs. … Singles by Freddie Freeman, Bradley Zimmer and Jonny DeLuca were the Dodgers’ only hits. … J.D. Martinez and David Peralta were hitless in Friday’s game. Martinez has started the spring 1 for 13 and Peralta is 0 for 11.

FAMILY TIME: The Dodgers brought minor league outfielder Kyle Nevin along for the game in Tempe and sent him out with their lineup card before the game. Nevin was the Dodgers’ 11th-round draft pick out of Baylor last year. He exchanged lineup cards with Angels manager Phil Nevin, his father. Kyle entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the ninth and struck out.
