CLEVELAND -- Mariners center fielder Dee Gordon was removed from Friday night's game against the Indians in the seventh inning for "precautionary reasons" after an apparent left leg injury in the previous frame.
Replays showed Gordon's left leg buckled when he attempted to jump and then crashed into the fence.
Gordon, who converted from second base this season after being acquired from the Marlins, was trying to track down a home run by Yonder Alonso when he collided with the wall.
After talking to athletic trainer Rob Nodine and manager Scott Servais, the 30-year-old remained in the game for the rest of that inning, but Servais chose to replace him with utility man Andrew Romine when the club took the field in the seventh, trailing 6-2.
