"The Angels were dealt a tough blow during their win over the Athletics last night when catcher Logan O'Hoppe was struck by a warmup backswing off the bat of A's shortstop Jacob Wilson. Wilson's warmup swing hit O'Hoppe under the face mask, and he immediately fell to the ground in pain before exiting the game shortly thereafter. After the game, interim manager Ray Montgomery told reporters (including Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com) that O'Hoppe was "doing OK"."
"Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts said yesterday that the team expects to welcome both third baseman and southpaw back from the injured list today ( via The Athletic's Fabian Ardaya). Both have been on the mend from oblique strains. Their returns come at an opportune time for the Dodgers, as the team has been scuffling in recent weeks and currently sits just one game up on the Padres in the NL West."
Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe was struck by a warmup backswing from A's shortstop Jacob Wilson and exited the game after appearing in pain. Interim manager Ray Montgomery said O'Hoppe was "doing OK" while the club conducts testing and follows the concussion protocol; O'Hoppe could require a 7-day injured list stint and Travis d'Arnaud would take over regular catching duties. Sebastian Rivero, Zach Humphreys, and Chad Wallach are Triple-A depth but are not on the 40-man roster. The Dodgers expect a third baseman and a left-handed reliever to return from oblique injuries today. The Reds remain behind both the Mets and Padres in the postseason chase despite recent wins.
