Umpire David Rackley is taking the afternoon off after being squared in the unmentionables Sunday.
Rackley, who was behind the plate for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres contest, went down in pain after a Joc Pederson bunt attempt went awry.
After more than a 10-minute delay, where Rackley was looked at by a trainer, he was eventually replaced behind home by Alfonso Marquez.
