Los Angeles Dodgers star shortstop Mookie Betts fractured his left hand when he was hit by a pitch in the seventh inning of a 3-0 victory over the visiting Kansas City Royals, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after the game on Sunday.

"It's just going to be rest and let the bones heal," said Roberts, calling it a big blow to the team.
