Dodgers' Dalton Rushing: Returns from IL

The Dodgers reinstated Rushing (shin) from the injured list Tuesday.

A bone bruise in Rushing's right shin caused him to move to the injured list Sept. 6, but he'll return to the active roster following a minimum-length stay. Los Angeles will deploy Ben Rortvedt behind the dish Tuesday against the Phillies, but with Will Smith (hand) set to remain sidelined until at least Saturday, Rushing could make a handful of starts this week.
