Major League Baseball umpire Larry Vanover was transported to the hospital and is being evaluated for a concussion and other injuries after being hit in the head by a throw during Wednesday's game between the New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians, per Tom Withers of the Associated Press.
In the top of the fifth inning, Guardians second baseman Andrés Giménez attempted to throw a runner out at home plate but instead hit Vanover in the head, knocking him to the infield grass between the mound and second base.
The 67-year-old got back on his feet without any assistance and was checked out by Cleveland's trainer before being taken out of the game.
