Diamondbacks announce update on Geraldo Perdomo following scary exit in Astros game
The Arizona Diamondbacks had an update on shortstop Geraldo Perdomo following his scary exit during Sunday's matchup with the Houston Astros.
Geraldo Perdomo, the Arizona Diamondbacks infielder, and the team are closely monitoring his condition following a frightening incident during a game against the Houston Astros on Sunday. Perdomo sustained a head contusion after being struck in the helmet by a line drive hit by his teammate Ketel Marte. The 26-year-old, who has struggled offensively this season with a .250 batting average and .721 OPS, was leading off first base when the unfortunate event occurred.
Despite falling to the ground, Perdomo managed to exit the field on his own power, but was promptly replaced by utility infielder Ildemaro Vargas at shortstop. Perdomo has only missed five games this season, including just one prior to the incident. The Diamondbacks are closely monitoring Perdomo's progress and will provide further updates on his condition.
