Jazz Chisholm Jr., the New York Yankees’ second baseman, had to exit the game in the fourth inning after a painful incident. Chisholm fouled a pitch that bounced back and hit him in the groin area, causing him to collapse in pain.
He was tended to by trainers but was unable to continue playing. Anthony Volpe took his place in the lineup.
Chisholm had been performing well lately, hitting .254 with an .811 OPS in his last 49 games. The Yankees have been dealing with several injuries, including Aaron Judge’s broken rib and Giancarlo Stanton’s calf issue.
Despite these injuries, the team has managed to stay in first place in the American League East, 3.0 games ahead of their closest competitors.
