He advanced to third before the inning ended. Pages was replaced by Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez to start the fifth.<\/p>\n<p>Manager Dave Roberts said X-rays revealed the break.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s not season-ending because obviously things like that it&#8217;s four or five weeks,&#8221; Roberts said. \u201cI would expect him back, knowing him, on the earlier side. There&#8217;s still time in the season for him to be back. I feel for him because he&#8217;s having such a good year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Roberts said it&#8217;s possible Pages could need surgery, but he doesn&#8217;t believe that would change the timetable for him to return.<\/p>\n<p>Roberts said utility player Tommy Edman, who had the winning single in the 10th inning, could play some center in Pages&#8217; absence.<\/p>\n<p>Pages is hitting .272 with 25 home runs and 80 RBIs. He earned his first All-Star selection this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star Andy Pages fractured his left hand after being hit by a pitch against the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1017527,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,2442,2961,224,5337],"class_list":["post-1017526","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-ca","tag-california","tag-dodgers","tag-la","tag-los-angeles","tag-losangeles"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117140540945461778","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1017526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1017526"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1017526\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1017527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1017526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1017526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1017526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
