Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitcher Tyler Glasnow departed Sunday’s game in the second inning due to an apparent injury. After throwing several warmup pitches, Glasnow exited the game and was replaced by right-handed pitcher Ben Casparius.
This marks the second consecutive start that Glasnow has left early due to injury. His previous start against the Texas Rangers was cut short due to leg cramps, while Sunday’s abbreviated outing appeared to be related to an arm issue.
