Overview
- Vesia worked a clean seventh inning in his season debut, which came Friday against the Diamondbacks, and he walked off to a standing ovation.
- He wore a dark pink Marucci glove stitched with his daughter’s name, Sterling Sol, her birth date inside the palm, and a K on the ring finger for his wife Kayla.
- He followed with another scoreless inning Saturday, in what local coverage described as back-to-back emotional ovations.
- Kayla Vesia called Opening Day “very bittersweet” and later told Alex “Sterling and I are so proud of you,” while he vowed on Instagram, “I’m going to make you proud SSV.”
- Vesia missed the 2025 World Series after stepping away for what the team called a deeply personal family matter, and the couple has since begun therapy and publicly thanked the Dodgers, Blue Jays, fans and Cedars-Sinai.
