LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers as expected placed outfielder Carl Crawford on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right oblique before the second game of a three-game series against the Giants at Dodger Stadium. The team recalled Kiké Hernandez from Triple-A Oklahoma City to take his spot on the roster.
"It's pretty bad," Crawford said. "It's a bad tear, it wasn't mild or anything like that."
There isn't yet a timetable for Crawford's return, but as of now he is just icing his side, and can't even cough or sneeze without feeling pain.
