Los Angeles Dodgers right fielder Teoscar Hernandez will miss his second consecutive game Tuesday because of a stomach virus.
Hernandez is the third Dodgers player to miss games this season because of a stomach virus — joining Mookie Betts and Enrique Hernandez.
Teoscar Hernandez, 32, is batting .281 with five home runs and 16 RBIs in 17 games this season. He hit 33 home runs with 99 RBIs in his first season in Los Angeles in 2024 and helped the team win the World Series.
Andy Pages was in right field for Hernandez both Monday and Tuesday.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts also revealed Tuesday that right-hander Bobby Miller will get his first start of the season in Wednesday’s series finale against the Colorado Rockies.
Miller, 26, struggled last season when he went 2-4 with an 8.52 ERA in 13 starts as he dealt with a shoulder injury before he was sent to Triple-A Oklahoma City. In spring training this year, he was hit in the head by a line drive and placed in concussion protocol that delayed his preparation for the season.
Miller owns a 2.25 ERA in three appearances (two starts) at Oklahoma City this season. He has struck out 11 and walked 11 over 12 innings.
