Dyson day to day with right hamstring cramp

July 18th, 2019

ARLINGTON -- Arizona’s Jarrod Dyson slid awkwardly into second base in the sixth inning of the D-backs' 19-4 rout of the Rangers at Globe Life Park on Wednesday night, as he was forced out on a ground ball to shortstop. 

He didn’t immediately get up and needed assistance walking off the field.

Dyson was removed from the game with a right hamstring cramp.

“Dyson is doing just fine. He’s not playing tomorrow," D-backs manager Torey Lovullo said. "It was scheduled that way. I’d planned that out a couple days in advance. He’s going to get a little bit of rest getting back to Phoenix tonight, and we’ll see how he feels tomorrow. How it was explained to me is that he’ll be day to day.”   

Dyson went 3-for-5, including his sixth home run of the season, which is a career high, besting the five he hit for Seattle in 2017.
