Jays OF Jesús Sánchez Suffers Right Wrist Bruise on Ball Thrown by Kid From Stands
Video appeared to confirm a fan threw the ball, and the Blue Jays said the spectator was removed after Jesús Sánchez was hurt.
- On Sunday, Blue Jays outfielder Jesus Sanchez left the game during the sixth inning after being struck in the wrist by a baseball thrown from the stands at Camden Yards.
- Reports indicate an approximately 13-year-old fan threw the ball after misinterpreting Sanchez's glove-flapping gesture during a mound visit as an invitation to play catch.
- Although X-rays were negative, Sanchez sustained a bruised wrist and described the incident as a "complete misunderstanding." He said, "It hurts a little bit, but thank God it's nothing bad or a fracture."
- The Orioles ejected the fan from the ballpark, with Baltimore manager Craig Albernaz stating, "It's certainly not something the Orioles condone," as the club investigates the incident.
- Toronto manager John Schneider remarked on the unusual event, adding, "I'm sure the kid feels bad," as the injury stands as the team's "weirdest" setback this season amid ongoing injury struggles.
