Yasiel Puig out of lineup in Dodgers' finale with Reds

One night after being removed from the game for failing to run out a potential double off the right field wall, Yasiel Puig is out of the Dodgers' lineup for their series finale against the Reds on Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium.

Puig hit a drive off the right field wall in the sixth inning on Tuesday night, and thinking it was a home run stood and watched the ball at home plate. Instead of a double, Puig ended up with a single, and later scored from second base on an infield ground ball off first baseman Joey Votto.
