Headed to injured list The Dodgers placed Rushing on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a bone bruise in his right shin, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact CT scans on Rushing's leg confirmed he didn't suffer a fracture after fouling a ball off his leg Friday, though he will still need to spend time on the injured list. Ben Rortvedt is expected to make a handful of starts at catcher with Will Smith nursing a hand injury, and the Dodgers will promote Chuckie Robinson from Triple-A to serve as extra backstop depth.

Battling bruised shin Rushing was pulled from Friday's game versus Baltimore with a right lower-leg contusion.
Impact Rushing needed to be helped off the field after fouling a ball off his leg in the sixth inning, but the fact that the Dodgers are calling his injury a bruise suggests he managed to escape without any fractures. Los Angeles is expected to be without Will Smith (hand) for the entirety of the series against the O's, so Rushing's injury could spell increased playing time for Ben Rortvedt.
