Max Muncy has been placed on the 10-day injured list after suffering a bone bruise in his left knee from a collision at third base with Michael A. Taylor. This injury prevents him from participating during Clayton Kershaw's imminent milestone of reaching 3,000 strikeouts, which occurred three pitches after Muncy's injury. Muncy expressed deep disappointment about leaving the field just before Kershaw's achievement. Kershaw acknowledged concerns for Muncy's well-being while emphasizing the importance of performing their jobs.
"It was a wide range of emotions, that's for sure... I really was not happy about that. I was trying to be like, 'Hey, get me off this field,' that way Kersh can keep going and we can figure it out inside."
"Obviously getting hurt sucks and missing time sucks, but to not be able to be out there on that field with him when he got 3,000, that was a pretty big blow."
