Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. exited Tuesday’s game against the Orioles with an apparent injury.
With the Yankees already up 4-0, Chisholm took a first-pitch cut and fouled off a ball from starter Kyle Gibson. Chisholm looked uncomfortable and took a few steps out of the batter’s box. He straightened his back and favored his side. He spoke to the trainers but Chisholm continued the at-bat and two pitches later, lined a double down the right field line. Chisholm slid into third base with a double (and an error on the right field), third base coach Luis Rojas immediately signaled to the dugout that the infielder needed to come out.

Oswald Peraza replaced Chisholm at third base and eventually came in to score on an Anthony Volpe double.
The Yankees later announced Chisholm left with “right flank discomfort.”
