Although the Los Angeles Dodgers have stormed out to the best record in the National League and as one of the best teams in baseball, it has not come without some bumps. The latest is with Justin Turner, who recently was out of the lineup four consecutive games with right hamstring tightness.
Turner suffered the injury when scoring the tying run from second base on Cody Bellinger’s double in the ninth inning of last week’s walk-off win against the New York Mets. Turner missed the series finale and was projected to return against the Philadelphia Phillies.
Instead, he was limited to a pinch-hit appearance in the last game of the weekend set.
