Max Muncy was placed on the injured list following a bone bruise to his left knee, resulting from a collision with Michael Taylor during a game against the Chicago White Sox. The incident occurred in the sixth inning when Taylor slid into third base. Muncy's injury adds to the Dodgers' lengthy injured list, now totaling 13 players. Esteury Ruiz has replaced him on the roster. Muncy led the team in multiple categories and his absence is seen as a significant loss for the lineup.
The Dodgers will be without Max Muncy after the third baseman was placed on the injured list Thursday with a bone bruise in his left knee.
Muncy was injured in the sixth inning of Wednesday's walk-off win over the Chicago White Sox when Chicago's Michael Taylor slid headfirst into third on an unsuccessful attempt to steal.
Muncy's absence will leave a big hole in the Dodgers' lineup, as he led the team with a .333 average and 24 RBIs in June.
Pitcher Clayton Kershaw expressed concern, stating, 'We're all holding our breath that Munc is going to be OK.'
