White Sox's Jose Abreu Exits with Apparent Injury After Hunter Dozier Collision

Chicago White Sox star Jose Abreu was removed from the Friday's game against the Kansas City Royals in the second inning.

Abreu collided with Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier as he was trying to field a popup on the infield.

The Royals and White Sox are playing a doubleheader at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Abreu was a huge part of the White Sox' ascent to the playoffs last season for the first time since 2008. The Cuban star won the American League MVP award after posting a .317/.370/.617 slash line with 19 homers and 60 RBI.
