Moved to IL The Dodgers placed Smith (hand) on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Sept. 10, on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Smith hurt his hand Wednesday after taking a pitch off his right hand. He was initially slated to be in the lineup the next day but was subsequently scratched. Manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Smith was ultimately moved to the injured list because "there just wasn't improvement." With Smith's IL stint being backdated to Wednesday, he'll be eligible to return Sept. 20, and Los Angeles aims to activate him then. In the meantime, Ben Rortvedt will likely serve as the team's primary backstop.
