Arizona’s Geraldo Perdomo leaves game after being hit in the helmet by a line drive

Perdomo walked off under his own power after a 93 mph line drive from Ketel Marte struck his helmet, and the team gave no immediate injury update.

  • On Sunday, Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo left the game against the Houston Astros at Daikin Park after being struck in the helmet by a 93 mph line drive from teammate Ketel Marte during the third inning.
  • Perdomo collapsed immediately, writhing in pain as manager Torey Lovullo and trainer Max Esposito rushed to attend to him; after several minutes, he walked off the field under his own power.
  • Following the incident, Ildemaro Vargas shifted from first base to shortstop to replace Perdomo, while utilityman Tim Tawa entered the game at first base for Arizona.
  • The Diamondbacks did not immediately provide details on Perdomo's condition, though broadcaster Todd Walsh reported the shortstop walked into the tunnel for evaluation.
  • Perdomo had appeared in 139 of Arizona's 143 games this season, maintaining mostly good health while providing exceptional defensive play before Sunday's incident.
