Dustin May made a triumphant return to the Los Angeles Dodgers after a nearly two-year absence due to extensive surgeries, including Tommy John revision and emergency esophageal surgery. Despite the challenges he faced, May delivered an impressive performance in his first regular season start since May 2023, allowing only one unearned run and striking out six in five innings. He described the emotional weight of his comeback, expressing gratitude for being back on the mound and enjoying the game's experience once again, regardless of the outcome.
Just knowing everything I've been through in the last two years, it was like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders and I could kind of relax. I've got my footing again.
After the esophagus thing happened, it was a totally reset. There was nothing I could even do at the moment, so playing baseball was at the very back of my mind.
