Dodgers' Teoscar Hernández begins rehab assignment ahead of potential return

Summary

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernández is set to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A on Tuesday after recovering from a left hamstring strain. Hernández has been on the injured list for over three weeks. Manager Dave Roberts indicated that a successful rehab could lead to Hernández being activated before the Dodgers' series against the Athletics on June 29. His return comes at a critical time as the Dodgers also currently lack another key player, catcher Will Smith, due to injury. Hernández had been performing well before his injury, batting.325 with seven extra-base hits in May.
