Padres center fielder Jackson Merrill exited Wednesday’s game against the Dodgers in the fifth inning, getting replaced by Bryce Johnson. He suffered an injury in the top of the first inning after banging into the outfield wall on an attempted home-run robbery off Shohei Ohtani.
Before exiting, Merrill went 0-for-1 with a strikeout.
Since Merrill only had one plate appearance, he is eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.
