Report: Reds’ India airlifted to hospital after injury in Field of Dreams game

Reds second base Jonathan India was airlifted to a hospital in Iowa City, Iowa, after suffering a leg injury in the Field of Dreams game Thursday night vs. the Cubs in Dyersville, Iowa, according to C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic.

India is driving back to Cincinnati today from Iowa with team trainers instead of flying to Cincinnati with the team because of swelling in his left leg, Rosecrans reported.

India left Thursday night’s game vs. the Cubs before the top of the fourth inning. He was hit by a pitch in the lower left leg in the first inning.
