Injured Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzales has been out for the past month with a back injury and it seems like he’s not interested in joining his team in the World Series if he’s not able to contribute. According to several reports, Gonzalez has chosen to go on vacation in Europe than to be with his teammates tonight in game 1.

Thanks to an injury, Adrian Gonzalez was never going to be part of the World Series, but the Dodgers’ veteran first baseman has no plans to be anywhere near it anyway. As the Los Angeles Times’ Bill Shaikin notes, Gonzalez won’t be with the team as it opens the Fall Classic against the Astros on Tuesday night. Instead, he’s currently in Italy with his family on vacation.
