The Los Angeles Dodgers placed starting shortstop Miguel Rojas on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain Wednesday. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers recalled infielder Yonny Hernandez from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Luke Williams was playing shortstop and batting eighth against the New York Mets on Wednesday afternoon.
Williams pinch hit for Rojas in the fifth inning of Tuesday night's game. Rojas went 0-for-1 with a walk. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters pregame that Mookie Betts would have been at short if he had come off paternity leave Wednesday.
