Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. was forced out of Thursday’s game against the White Sox in one of the most painful ways imaginable.
During an at-bat in the bottom of the fourth, Chisholm fouled a ball straight off the ground near the plate and the ball took an unfortunate bounce and hit Chisholm where it hurts the most.
The second baseman crumbled to the ground and remained there for several moments before Aaron Boone and the training staff came out to check on Chisholm, who eventually got to his feet, but was clearly still in discomfort.
Unable to continue, Chisholm was removed from the game and Anthony Volpe entered to finish the at-bat.
Volpe ended up drawing a walk against Chicago right-hander Sean Burke, but was thrown out trying to steal second to end the inning.
