BOSTON (AP) — Red Sox rightfielder Mookie Betts has left Saturday’s game against Baltimore with a bruised left foot a couple of innings after he collided with Orioles catcher Chance Sisco on a close play.
The team announced that X-rays were negative and he’s day to day.
Betts came around to score on Andrew Benintendi’s first-inning double off the Green Monster, sliding hard into the plate and banging left legs with Sisco’s shin guard as he reached across the plate to grab a relay throw.
Betts stayed on his knees in apparent pain for a few seconds before getting up slowly and hobbling to the dugout.
