Max Muncy's progress a big relief for Dodgers
Briefly

Max Muncy suffered a bone bruise in his left knee and was placed on the 10-day injured list, with an initial recovery expectation of six weeks. An MRI showed no structural damage, leading to mixed feelings about his prognosis. Recently, Muncy began swinging a bat, throwing, and light running, indicating a faster recovery than anticipated. The Dodgers have struggled offensively in his absence, managing only two or fewer runs in seven of 12 games. Muncy improved significantly during June after a rough start to the season, crediting part of his success to wearing glasses.
