Tyler Glasnow leaves the game prematurely, but it's not a major injury

Tyler Glasnow was doing fine while pitching during the game. But towards the third inning, something didn't seem quite right. He seemed uncomfortable, and the coaches also observed the same thing. To play safe, the team removed him from the game. Many were surprised since there wasn't any apparent sign of injury on the field.

Later, reporters were addressed by Dave Roberts, and he stated that Tyler Glasnow "just couldn't keep going." He described that Tyler Glasnow felt general discomfort, but nothing serious. It was neither a pulled muscle nor arm pain. The team just did not want to take risks.
Dave further stated that, “He just seemed uncomfortable trying to find his way through it. He went out there, threw one pitch, and he just couldn’t keep going. A lot of times with the lower half, you don’t want it to bleed into the arm and affect that.”
Dave Roberts added that Tyler Glasnow is being examined by the team physicians and receiving the proper attention. To date, he could potentially miss one game but should be back shortly if everything is all right. This was welcome news to fans, who feared it could have been something more serious.

Tyler Glasnow's status is extremely significant to the Dodgers' season

Tyler Glasnow is one of the most important players for the Dodgers. That is why they paid him a big sum of money, $136.5 million. They expect him to head their team as one of the top pitchers in the league. That is why they are extra cautious about his health.
Although he has suffered from injuries before, this one does not seem so bad. Roberts assured them that they would keep a close eye on his condition and not rush him back. The team prefers him to be 100% fit before returning to the field.
