BOSTON -- Blue Jays center fielder Kevin Pillar was forced to leave Saturday afternoon's game against the Red Sox with an apparent upper-body injury.
Pillar made a diving catch to rob Brock Holt of an RBI single in the bottom of the third inning. His head-first grab started an inning-ending double play, but Pillar was seen grimacing in pain and holding his neck after returning to the dugout.
The 29-year-old Pillar did not return to the field for the bottom of the fourth. He was replaced by Dwight Smith Jr.
