  "account": "Blake Snell, a two-time Cy Young winner, left the Cincinnati Reds game after just one inning due to a groin injury. This occurred during the Dodgers' visit to Great American Ball Park, where they were aiming to secure their position in the NL West title race. Snell, who had previously thrown a no-hitter for the Giants in 2024, appeared in just three batters before his exit. He struck out Dane Myers, retired Elly De La Cruz with a fly out to center, and allowed a single to Sal Stewart, who was ultimately thrown out attempting to steal second base. Despite being 4-1 with a 1.91 ERA since returning from elbow surgery, Snell was unable to continue beyond the first inning. Right-hander Blake Treinen took over for the remaining portion of the game.",
  "summary": "The 2-time defending-champion Dodgers' roster took another possible hit when 2-time Cy Young winner Blake Snell exited with 'left groin tightness.'",
