For the third day in a row, the Dodgers have called up a new pitcher from Triple-A Oklahoma City. On Thursday, Paul Gervase joins the Dodgers in Los Angeles before the start of a four-game weekend series against the San Diego Padres at Dodger Stadium.<\/p>\n
Charlie Barnes was the fresh arm on Wednesday<\/a>, covering the final seven innings in a loss to the A\u2019s in West Sacramento<\/a>. Barnes, who has been starting in Oklahoma City, followed an opener on Wednesday and allowed seven runs, a classic \u201ctake one for the team\u201d outing in which a pitcher soaks up innings to rest most of the bullpen. Wednesday was the sixth game of a 13-day stretch for the Dodgers, and a rotation shuffle moved Shohei Ohtani from Wednesday to start on the mound Friday against the Padres.<\/p>\n Gervase had a classic \u201ctake one for the team\u201d outing on May 9, pitching the final three innings of a loss to the Atlanta Braves<\/a>, a major league career high in innings for the 6\u201910 right-hander, and one out shy of his professional career high. He was optioned the next day<\/a>.<\/p>\n Gervase with Oklahoma City this season has a 3.60 ERA and two saves in 19 appearances, with 35 strikeouts and 18 walks in 25 innings. In two games with the Dodgers, Gervase allowed one run in five innings with five strikeouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the third day in a row, the Dodgers have called up a new pitcher from Triple-A Oklahoma…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":740056,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[241411,363,99],"class_list":["post-740055","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-los-angeles-dodgers-roster","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/740055","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=740055"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/740055\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/740056"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=740055"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=740055"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=740055"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
