Ethier removed himself from Monday's game because he felt soreness in his back while running, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old left in the middle of the game with a trainer, but the fact that he was able to jog off suggests the injury isn't overly serious. He'll likely be ready for action within the next couple of days, but Ethier could be held out longer as the Dodgers have no need to rush him back.
