Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters following Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs that X-rays on Freddie Freeman's hand came back negative, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Analysis:Freeman was removed from the fifth inning of Wednesday's contest after being hit on the hand, but the good news is that he appears to have avoided a serious injury. With Thursday being a scheduled off day for the Dodgers, Freeman is expected to be in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the Diamondbacks.
