Dominican outfielder Jasson Dom\u00ednguez suffered a left shoulder injury and will be out for several weeks, after a collision with the left field wall during Thursday’s game between the New York Yankees and the Texas Rangers at Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n
The incident occurred on the first play of the game, when Dom\u00ednguez tried to catch a hit by Brandon Nimmo. After the catch, the Dominican hit the metal fence.<\/p>\n
The player was attended to by the medical staff and left the field on a cart, receiving an ovation.<\/p>\n
Dom\u00ednguez was evaluated by Dr. Chris Ahmad and entered concussion protocol. Although a concussion was ruled out, the club confirmed a low-grade acromioclavicular sprain in the left shoulder.<\/p>\n
The manager Aaron Boone indicated that the player will be out for “a few weeks” while he completes the recovery process.<\/p>\n
Before the injury, Boone had praised Dom\u00ednguez’s defensive evolution.<\/p>\n
After the injury, Amed Rosario moved from the infield to right field, and Cody Bellinger shifted to left field to reorganize New York’s defense.<\/p>\n
The Yankees are preparing to promote prospect Spencer Jones from Triple-A. The outfielder has 11 home runs, 41 RBIs, and an OPS of .958 in 33 games this season in the minor leagues.<\/p>\n
Jones’ arrival is a response to Dom\u00ednguez’s absence and the physical problems of other players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
