Seager suffered a broken right hand in Saturday's win over the Dodgers, ESPN reports. X-rays after the game revealed the fracture.

The 27-year-old was removed from Saturday's contest after being struck on the right hand by a pitch. He's expected to be placed on the injured list Sunday.

Manager Dave Roberts expects Seager (hand) to be placed on the injured list Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

The 27-year-old was removed from Saturday's contest after being struck on the right hand by a pitch, and he's dealing with some pain and swelling. Seager will undergo medical imaging to determine the severity of the injury, but it's safe to rule him out indefinitely with a trip to the injured list on the horizon.

Seager was removed from Saturday's game against the Marlins after being hit by a pitch on the right hand, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

The 27-year-old appeared to be in significant pain after being struck by the 90-mph pitch during the fifth inning, and he was promptly lifted for a pinch runner. Seager's availability for Sunday's series finale versus the Marlins is now up in the air.

Crawford went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Pirates.

The Giants only had four hits as a team and Crawford had the biggest one of the night when he led off the eighth with a solo home run to right to put the Giants up 1-0. He also later scored in extra innings as the runner on second. The 34-year-old has been scorching hot over his last 10 games, slashing .360/.500/.840 with four home runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored.

Turner went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Friday's 17-2 win over Arizona.

Turner got Washington off to a quick start with a leadoff home run off Riley Smith. He went on to slug a two-run double in the fifth inning before being given a rest in the sixth with Washington staked to an 11-run lead. Turner is among baseball's top offensive performers again this season, slashing .312/.351/.551 with nine homers, 18 RBI and seven stolen bases.

Story went 2-for-3 with two walks and a stolen base in Friday's win over the Reds. He was also caught stealing.

Story now has four steals in May -- twice as many has he had in April. This was his fifth multi-hit game of the current month and Story is looking more and more like the player we know, with his slash line sitting up at .287/.365/.478. He's a prime candidate to be traded at this year's deadline.

DeJong landed on the 10-day injured list with a non-displaced rib fracture Friday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

DeJong left Wednesday's game against the Brewers with what was originally referred to as side tightness. The injury was evidently more serious than that, though it's not yet clear when he's expected to return. Max Moroff was called up to take his place on the roster, though it will likely be Matt Carpenter who continues to take his place in the starting lineup, playing second base and pushing Tommy Edman to shortstop.

DeJong (side) will sit Friday against the Padres, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

DeJong left Wednesday's game against the Brewers with side tightness and remains sidelined. A trip to the injured list appears to be a possibility. Tommy Edman will again shift to shortstop Friday, with Matt Carpenter making another start at second base.

Ahmed will be on the bench for Friday's game against the Nationals.

Ahmed owns a .762 OPS over his last 10 games after struggling to a .397 mark over his first 20 contests. Josh Rojas will start in his absence Friday.

Crawford (COVID-19) will start Friday at Pittsburgh, Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

The 34-year-old was sidelined Thursday while experiencing some side effects from receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, but he'll rejoin the lineup Friday after a day off. Crawford is 7-for-21 with three homers, six walks, eight RBI and six runs over eight games in May.
