Kyle Tucker Remains Out as Dodgers Chase Sweep Over Giants
The Los Angeles Dodgers kept right fielder Kyle Tucker out of their lineup for Sunday's game after he exited Saturday's win early.
Kyle Tucker will remain sidelined for the Los Angeles Dodgers as they aim to clinch a sweep over the San Francisco Giants. The right fielder was forced to sit out Saturday's win after suffering a shin injury that forced him to leave early. Manager Dave Roberts initially believed Tucker would be back for Sunday's game, but it is now clear he will not play.
The Dodgers are employing a bullpen day strategy and may call upon players such as Jack Dreyer and Emmet Sheehan to fill in if necessary. In their lineup, Mookie Betts leads off, followed by Tommy Edman, Teoscar Hernandez, Freddie Freeman, Miguel Rojas, Max Muncy, Josue De Paula, Kiké Hernandez, and Hunter Feduccia. The Giants, led by Matt Wilkinson, who makes his seventh start of the season, will be looking to break their scoreless streak in what will begin at 1:10 p.m. PT.
