Rockies center fielder Yonathan Daza injured his left shoulder during the first inning of Thursday afternoon’s game at Coors Field.
The club announced that Daza had suffered a left shoulder sprain and would be further evaluated.
Daza made an excellent running catch on a line drive by the Cardinals’ Nolan Arenado but tumbled to the ground after making the grab. Daza immediately clutched his left shoulder.
A team trainer helped Daza leave the field through the gate to the Rockies’ bullpen in right-center field. Daza was replaced by Garrett Hampson.
It was the second significant injury for Colorado in the last two days.
