Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star Mookie Betts left Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals with a fractured bone in his left wrist after being hit with a 98 mph fastball.
Manager Dave Roberts told reporters postgame that Betts isn't expected to need surgery but that he'll be sidelined "for some time." A precise prognosis and timeline wasn't immediately clear.
The injury took place with Los Angeles leading, 3-0 in the bottom of the seventh inning. With one man on and a 1-2 count, Royals reliever Dan Altavilla threw a 98 mph fastball inside that hit Betts in his left hand.
