Los Angeles Dodgers center fielder Andy Pages leaves a Friday game against the Pittsburgh Pirates after being hit on his left hand by a pitch. Pages is struck in the third inning and takes first base, after which Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and a trainer come out to check on him.
Multiple reports describe the injury as a contusion to Pages’ left hand or wrist. Yahoo Sports notes that he exits early and that the Dodgers provide an update afterward, while also framing it as a hand injury sustained during the series opener. The details of the immediate play are consistent across outlets: Pages is hit by Pirates pitcher Bubba Chandler, then leaves the game shortly after evaluation.
The coverage differs mainly in emphasis, with some headlines focusing on the left-hand pitch impact and others on the resulting wrist injury description and the Dodgers’ follow-up update. However, all accounts agree on the cause (a hit by a pitch) and the timing (during the third inning) leading to Pages’ departure.
