Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Mike Bolsinger was on the mound vs. the Angels on Wednesday, and after falling to the Angels 8-1, the Dodgers have optioned Bolsinger to OKC on Thursday.

#Dodgers send down Mike Bolsinger after spot start, call up reliever Chin-Hui Tsao from AAA. They'll probably send down a pitcher tomorrow.

After being reinstated from the disabled list, Bolsinger allowed three runs on seven hits in 4.1 innings in his 2016 debut. The Dodgers called up Chin-hui Tsao, a right-handed reliever, who has gone 1-1 with six saves and a 3.31 ERA (6 ER/16.1 IP) at Triple-A. Also, since April 29, he has a run of 8.1 consecutive scoreless innings in his last eight games.
