Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger hit a mammoth, tie-breaking home run that was ultimately the difference-maker in Game 7 of the NLCS against the Atlanta Braves on Sunday.

It turns out he may have celebrated a little too hard when he bashed arms with teammate Enrique Hernandez.

"I hit (Enrique's) shoulder a little too hard, and my shoulder popped out," Bellinger said. "So I had to go back in the training room and pop it back in, and I was ready to play some defense."

Bellinger added next time he might use his left arm because he's never dislocated it.

Hernandez, who hit a game-tying home run earlier, joked that Bellinger learned a lesson from his brief injury.
