TORONTO -- Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman left Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against Tampa Bay after he was hit in the right foot by a line drive from Rays shortstop Wander Franco.
Franco's liner, which had an exit velocity of 100 miles per hour, struck Gausman and ricocheted to catcher Gabriel Moreno, who retired Franco at first to end the inning, leaving the bases loaded.
The team announced that Gausman had a right ankle contusion and X-rays came back negative.
Gausman stumbled forward and fell face down in front of the mound after being struck.
