Dodgers right fielder Yasiel Puig was scratched from the lineup Thursday after the Cubs. He was originally in the lineup after missing one game due to a blister on his left hand.

Scott Van Slyke started in right field in place of Puig, who is batting .333 (21 for 63) with one home run, two triples, five doubles, six RBI, eight runs, six walks and 13 strikeouts in his last 16 games.
