Texas Rangers center fielder Carlos Gomez left Saturday’s game against the New York Yankees after rolling his right ankle coming out of the batter’s box on a groundout in his first at-bat.
Gomez was only able to limp halfway to first and then fall to the ground, where he was attended to by trainer Kevin Harmon. Gomez left with assistance.
A Rangers official said the veteran outfielder would undergo further evaluation.
Drew Robinson entered the game in his spot in the lineup, but went to left field. Delino DeShields moved from left to Gomez’s center field position.
