In a start that unofficially served as a tryout for the Dodgers' postseason roster, Hyun-jin Ryu had to leave in the third inning Saturday after getting drilled by a line drive. His injury status remains unclear.
Giants second baseman Joe Panik smoked an 0-1 pitch off Ryu's throwing arm, injuring the lefthander only 36 pitches into his evening and forcing him to exit.
Manager Dave Roberts hasn't officially announced his team's postseason starters, but it's widely speculated that Alex Wood, Yu Darvish and Rich Hill will follow Clayton Kershaw in the Dodgers' playoff rotation. Roberts was quoted Friday saying the team would reassess its October pitching options after Ryu's start.
