Overview

  • Chisholm was struck on the left forearm by a 96.8–97 mph sinker from Baltimore rookie Grant Wolfram in the fifth inning at Yankee Stadium and left in visible pain.
  • The Yankees said team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad examined him, initial X-rays were clean, and a postgame CT scan also came back negative.
  • Manager Aaron Boone said early signs were good and that the ball appeared to hit the meat of the forearm, though the club will monitor his status.
  • José Caballero pinch-ran for Chisholm and finished the game at second base after the injury.
  • New York has clinched a postseason berth and is tied with Toronto for the AL East, making the All-Star’s 31-homer, 31-steal season especially vital as his availability for Sunday and the Wild Card round is assessed.
