It’s never a good thing when a player has to leave a close game with an injury. It’s really not good when it’s a leader like Justin Turner. But that is exactly what happened to the Dodgers in the middle of a tie game in Texas tonight.
Turner drove in the tying run for the Dodgers in the 7th inning. A few pitches later, he stole second base with ease. On the replay though, he can be seen pulling up with what appears to be some sort of lower-body cramp. The medical staff came on with Dave Roberts and removed JT from the game.
