Gonsolin has only faced the Phillies once in his career and had a no-decision last season in Los Angeles when he surrendered one run in 3.2 innings.

In three road starts this season, Gonsolin is 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA. Gonsolin pitched six shutout innings to beat the visiting Atlanta Braves on April 20 in his lone start during the day.

Eflin has been the losing pitcher in his last two starts, including Tuesday against the San Diego Padres at home in a fine effort. In six innings, he gave up one run and five hits with five strikeouts and no walks.

That was Eflin’s first outing since May 1 after spending time on the COVID-19 injured list.

The Dodgers have given Eflin major problems as he is 0-3 with an 8.76 ERA against them in six lifetime starts. He is 1-1 with a 1.13 ERA in three home starts in 2022 and has no record and a 1.86 ERA in two starts in the daytime.

Max Muncy is 4 for 8 with two home runs against Eflin while Cody Bellinger is 3 for 10 (.300) with two longballs. Freddie Freeman, though, is just a .133 (4 for 30) hitter versus Eflin, though his hits have been two doubles and two homers.

Dodgers vs Phillies Betting Outlook

Mookie Betts did it all for the Dodgers in Saturday night’s win.

The right fielder had a home run and double among his three hits. He also threw out the potential go-ahead run at home plate.

Betts has reached base in 20 of his last 21 games, hitting .333 (29 for 87) in that span with seven doubles, seven home runs and 18 RBIs.

Gavin Lux lined the go-ahead single for the Dodgers in the eighth inning to make it 5-4.

Phillies designated hitter Bryce Harper returned to the lineup Saturday after sitting out five games following a platelet-rich plasma injection in his ailing right elbow. He went 1 for 4.

The 2021 National League MVP has a slightly torn ligament and his NL MVP odds this season are +900.

Harper made a fan happy during his downtime.
