Report: Dodgers' Cody Bellinger Undergoes Shoulder Surgery, Expected to Miss 10 Weeks

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger underwent surgery Tuesday for his right shoulder and is expected to miss 10 weeks, ESPN's Jeff Passan reports.

USA Today first reported that Bellinger had surgery.

Bellinger dislocated his right shoulder while celebrating a home run in the Dodgers 4-3 victory versus the Atlanta Braves in Game 7 of the National League Championship Series. His shoulder popped out of place when he used his forearm to celebrate with teammate Kike Hernandez after hitting a seventh-inning home run.

If he misses 10 weeks, according to Passan, it puts him on track to return for Major League Baseball spring training.
