Tyler Glasnow clearly wasn’t going to let his injured back prevent him from seeing World Cup soccer on Thursday.
The Dodgers star pitcher, who’s been on the injured list since early May, was spotted at SoFi Stadium taking in the USA vs. Turkey game alongside his pregnant wife, Meghan.
Glasnow appeared to be in good spirits, as he walked into the venue with a smile on his face. He did not seem to be favoring his balky back in any way.
His vibe was a stark contrast to earlier this week, when he admitted to reporters that his nagging ailment is “driving me [expletive] crazy.”
Glasnow, who was initially injured in a May 6 contest with the Astros, said he recently had to stop a throwing program because he sustained a setback. He called the whole situation very frustrating.
“I just have to make sure those symptoms are gone and I’m not going to hurt it again,” he said.
Glasnow was not the only injured Los Angeles starter who had tickets to the big soccer clash — Blake Snell was at the famed Inglewood stadium catching the action too.
Snell, like Glasnow, looked upbeat, even though he’s been on the injured list for the last several weeks while recovering from surgery to remove loose bodies from his pitching elbow.
