NEW YORK (AP) 鈥� Yankees left fielder Jasson Dom铆nguez left Thursday’s game against Texas in a cart after crashing into the wall while catching Brandon Nimmo’s drive leading off the first inning.
Dom铆nguez, playing outfield for for the second time this season, ran 81 feet to catch Nimmo’s 101 mph shot. He gloved the ball 375 feet from the plate as his left shoulder hit hard against the video advertising board.
Dom铆nguez’s sunglasses flew off as he fell to the warning track chest first, prompting centerfielder Trent Grisham to come over as manager Aaron Boone jogged out to check on Dom铆nguez along with head athletic trainer Tim Lentych, assistant athletic trainer Jimmy Downam and director of sports medicine and rehabilitation Michael Schuk.
Dom铆nguez cupped his head in his glove and sat up after about a minute. He pointed to his shoulder and craned his neck as he was being examined, then walked to a cart under his own power and was seated as the cart drove away.
Cody Bellinger moved from right to left, Amed Rosario switched from third base to right and Ryan McMahon entered the game at third.
