The Toros de Tijuana, led by Encinitas native Phil Evans and MLB veterans Justin Turner and Wilmer Flores, are poised for a championship run in the Mexican League.

Dodgers left‑hander Blake Snell will undergo surgery to clean out loose bodies from his elbow, with the club hoping he can pitch again before the season ends. Meanwhile, veteran hitter Wilber Flores, fresh off a three‑home‑run game for the Giants, has signed with Tijuana, linking up with Turner and Junior Lake on the Toros.
