Overview

  • Chisholm was struck on the left forearm by a 96.8–97 mph sinker from Orioles left-hander Grant Wolfram in the fifth inning Saturday and exited immediately.
  • Team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad examined him at Yankee Stadium, with initial X-rays clean and a subsequent CT scan also negative.
  • Manager Aaron Boone said early signs were good and indicated the pitch hit the meat of the forearm, with additional evaluation to follow.
  • New York left Chisholm out of Sunday's Game 162 lineup and started José Caballero at second base.
  • The Yankees have clinched a postseason berth and enter the finale tied with Toronto for the AL East, needing a win and a Blue Jays loss to take the division.
