Jung, an All-Star starter for the American League in July, was hurt fielding a line drive off the bat of Miami Marlins‘ Jorge Soler.
Jung is batting .274 with 22 home runs and 67 RBIs in 109 games. The 25-year-old, who started 107 of the team’s first 112 games at third base, including 33 straight, is considered the leading candidate to win American League Rookie of the Year honors.
He was placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday. At that time, he was the American League rookie leader in home runs, RBIs, runs (70), extra-base hits (47) and total bases (209).
