ST. LOUIS (AP) – Slumping Yasiel Puig is not in the Los Angeles Dodgers lineup for Game 4 of their NL Division Series against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Puig struck out seven consecutive times before he tripled and scored the tying run in the Dodgers’ 3-1 loss on Monday night, which gave St. Louis a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series. He is batting .250 in the series, going 3 for 12, with eight strikeouts.
Andre Ethier was listed to play center field and bat sixth in place of Puig against right-hander Shelby Miller. Ethier was 1 for 2 in the series and 2 for 6 this season against Miller.
