Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia has established himself as a critical piece to his team's bullpen, and his wife, Kayla Vesia, has been by his side the entire way. In October 2025, however, Alex was forced to step away from the team on the eve of the 2025 World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays as he and Kayla - who announced her pregnancy with baby No. 1 in April 2025 - address a "family matter," the Dodgers announced.
