Dodgers' Cody Bellinger Placed on 10-Day IL Because of Hamstring Injury
The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Tuesday that star outfielder Cody Bellinger has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Right-handed pitcher Mitch White has been called up to the MLB roster.
Bellinger left his team's home game against the Texas Rangers last Saturday in the fifth inning with what he initially described as a "cramp."
After the game, manager Dave Roberts told reporters (h/t Juan Toribio of MLB.com) that Bellinger was suffering from left hamstring tightness.
Since making his MLB debut in 2017, Bellinger has had no problems staying healthy. The two-time All-Star missed a total of 19 regular-season games in the previous three years combined.
