Dodgers Clinch Series Amid Injury Blow | MLB News

The Dodgers are one win away from clinching their series against the Pirates, but with a twist: star center fielder Andy Pages fractured his hand and will miss 4-5 weeks. Manager Dave Roberts is disappointed to lose Pages’ momentum, so they’re calling up outfielder Alek Thomas to fill the gap—known for elite defense and now hoping he can deliver at the plate. On the mound, lefty Tarik Skubal (3.18 ERA in 17 innings) takes on right-hander Jared Jones, who’s struggled this season. The lineup features Thomas in center, Ben Rortvedt behind the plate, and Shohei Ohtani as DH. First pitch is at 4:15 PM PT—stream it live on FOX or tune in to AM 570 for English or KTNQ 1020 AM for Spanish.
