  1. So he got hurt sprinting to first but he was still on a hitting streak… typical Dodgers luck. Man I hate seeing key guys go down right when they’re finally rolling.

  2. Wait Teoscar left because of a hamstring strain but it was “bottom of the second”?? That sounds like he should’ve been ok if it’s just like a muscle pull, not like a torn thing. Also Kike pulled earlier? I feel like this is just gonna keep happening all month unless they stop letting everyone run full speed all the time.

  3. This is why I don’t get excited until the season is over. They were finally heating up with that hitting streak and then boom hamstring. I saw Ezequiel Tovar mentioned and I was like “why is the Rockies guy always in the headline” but anyway… Dodgers injuries run deep I guess. Hopefully it’s not another oblique situation where they say “strain” and then he’s out for weeks.
