George Springer Pulled Early in Game 3 With Side Injury
Toronto Blue Jays designated hitter George Springer (side) was pulled from Game 3 of the World Series early on Monday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the top of the seventh inning with what appeared to be a right-side injury, according to Shi Davidi of Sportsnet. Springer called out for a trainer to examine him before leaving the game, with Ty France replacing him as a pinch-hitter. The 36-year-old dealt with a knee scare this postseason as well, but didn't miss any time. However, if this ends up being an oblique injury, it could easily knock him out for the remainder of the World Series, which would be a big loss for Toronto. We won't know Springer's status for Game 4 of the best-of-seven series on Tuesday until he undergoes some tests. Before leaving in the seventh, Springer went 0-for-3 at the plate with two strikeouts.
