Dodgers' Andy Pages Hit on Left Hand by a Pitch, Exits vs the Pirates
Pages sustained a left-hand contusion after being hit by Bubba Chandler and was replaced by Kiké Hernández in the fifth inning.
On Friday, Los Angeles Dodgers center fielder Andy Pages left the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates after being struck on his left hand by a pitch in the third inning.
Pirates pitcher Bubba Chandler threw the pitch that struck Pages, prompting Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and a trainer to check on him before he reached first base.
Pages sustained a left hand contusion and advanced to third base before the inning ended. He was replaced by Kiké Hernández to start the fifth inning.
Contributing 25 home runs and 80 RBIs this season, Pages earned his first All-Star selection, making the injury particularly significant for the Dodgers' offensive lineup.
The Dodgers await medical updates on the contusion's severity as Pages' availability for upcoming games remains uncertain during the team's continued season push.
