Hyun-Jin Ryu was removed in the third inning after he was struck by a line drive on his left hand/wrist area. X-rays came back negative and he was diagnosed with a left forearm contusion.
Ryu managed to make the play for the first out but then kneeled over in pain and was checked on by Dodgers head athletic trainer Nate Lucero. Ryu was replaced by Ross Stripling, who was free to take as much time needed to warm up before play resumed.
Stripling completed the third, then gave way to Brandon McCarthy for his first relief appearance this season.
