Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager left Wednesday night's 6-4 win over the San Diego Padres with tightness in his left hamstring.

Manager DaveRoberts said Seager will take Thursday off and then return Friday night.

Seager flied out to right in the third and did not take the field in the bottom of the inning. He was replaced by Enrique Hernandez.

Seager, who also doubled in a run in the first, missed 24 games earlier this season with a strained left hamstring. He missed most of the 2018 season due to a torn elbow ligament and torn hip labrum.

Seager is batting .274 with 18 home runs and 83 RBIs for the Dodgers, who clinched the NL West earlier this month.
