NEW YORK — The Dodgers sure could use a guy like that.
Dodgers left-hander Julio Urias’ first half of the season did not fit with his profile of an emerging ace – or do much to enhance the payday he is headed toward in free agency. His first game back after a stint on the injured list with a hamstring injury wasn’t much to look at either.
But Urias was dominant Friday night, holding the New York Mets — a possible future employer? — to one hit over six scoreless innings as the Dodgers returned from the All-Star break with a 6-0 victory.
