LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers activated relief pitcher Josh Fields from the paternity leave list on Saturday before their rain-shortened weekend series against the Giants at AT&T Park in San Francisco.

Fields missed two games while with his wife Brittney for the birth of their first child. The right-hander has pitched three scoreless innings in his three appearances this season with four strikeouts, retiring nine of his 10 batters faced.

The team made room on the active roster for Fields on Thursday when pitcher Zach Neal was designated for assignment.
