Toronto DH George Springer ‘Doing All Right’ After Getting Struck in the Head by a Fastball
- During the ninth inning on July 28, 2025, George Springer was struck in the head by a 96-mph pitch from Orioles rookie Kade Strowd, then walked off under his own power.
- The 96-mph fastball ran up and in on Springer, striking his shoulder then the left ear flap of his batting helmet, lessening the blow.
- After several anxious moments, Springer slowly lifted his head as the crowd of 20,176 at Camden Yards fell silent.
- Schneider said Springer was alert and speaking with staff from the moment trainers reached him, and the team expects more updates by Tuesday's doubleheader.
- The Blue Jays are already without All-Star catcher Alejandro Kirk on the seven-day concussion injured list, and Springer's status is uncertain for Tuesday's doubleheader against the Orioles.
