The news reports that the Los Angeles Dodgers’ first baseman, Max Muncy, has been placed on the paternity list due to the birth of his child. Muncy has been a key player for the Dodgers this season, batting .261 with 5 home runs and 20 RBIs in 32 games. The paternity list allows players to take up to three days off to attend to the birth or adoption of a child, and the team can replace them on the roster during that time. It is unclear how long Muncy will be out, but the Dodgers will likely rely on their depth to fill his spot in the lineup during his absence.
