Sisco exits after scary collision with Alvarez

ANAHEIM -- Orioles rookie catcher Chance Sisco exited Tuesday's game against the Angels in the seventh inning after a scary collision with teammate Pedro Alvarez on Ian Kinsler's foul popup.

With reliever Miguel Castro on the mound and the Orioles down, 2-0, Kinsler hit a towering popup by the home dugout. Both Sisco and third baseman Alvarez raced to chase it down, with Alvarez ultimately making the grab. But it appeared that Sisco didn't hear Alvarez call for the ball and was also tracking it down, taking Alvarez's forearm to the face and immediately hitting the ground.
