Blue Jays’ Vladimir Guerrero Jr. leaves after collision with Yankees’ George Lombard Jr. at third
In a recent game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Yankees, Blue Jays' star player Vladimir Guerrero Jr. left the game after colliding with Yankees rookie shortstop George Lombard Jr. at third base. The incident occurred in the sixth inning while the Blue Jays were trailing 1-0. Guerrero was advancing towards third base when Lombard attempted to make a play, resulting in their collision.
Guerrero's helmet was knocked off during the incident, and although he managed to score the tying run, he appeared disoriented post-run. The team later replaced him with Charles McAdoo at first base for the seventh inning. Guerrero has a batting average of .263 this season, along with seven home runs and 46 RBIs.
