Mookie Betts was a late scratch from the Los Angeles Dodgers' lineup on Friday night in a highly anticipated, star-studded matchup against the New York Yankees. It was revealed that Betts fractured the toe after stubbing it on a piece of furniture during a late-night trip to the bathroom. Relatable.
Saturday, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts spoke about the injury, detailing that Betts has had trouble taking his shoe on and off in recent days, according to Dodgers Insider. He also shared that the team is optimistic that Betts, currently listed as day-to-day, will avoid a stint on the injured list. Betts struck a similarly optimistic tone when the injury was revealed as well.
