The Los Angeles Dodgers won against the Kansas City Royals, but Miguel Rojas encountered an injury scare when he jammed his finger sliding into second base. After a painful seventh inning, he managed to finish that inning but was replaced in the eighth to prevent further damage. Rojas initially feared a more serious injury but later confirmed it was just a jammed finger. Given his recent strong performance and importance to the team, avoiding a severe injury is crucial for the Dodgers as they continue the season.
It's kind of sore. Got tagged, but didn't know if I jammed it with the bag or if it was the tag. But it was on my finger, so it's pretty sore. It was swelling up on me after that inning, and felt like I should be smart, take care of it, put some ice on it and try to calm the inflammation. Maybe not take another at-bat and make it worse. That's why I came out of the game.
That's exactly what I was thinking, because I had the same play, and I dislocated it and had a fracture in the other finger in 2022. So I was thinking about that. I'm glad it wasn't dislocated. It was just a really bad jam, and I think I escaped a bad situation there.
