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":2,"featured_media":440633,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[426,48,52,51,47,50,49],"class_list":["post-440632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-dodgers","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440632","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=440632"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440632\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/440633"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=440632"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=440632"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=440632"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
