Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm Won’t Wear Cup Despite ‘Unlucky’ Foul Tip Hitting Groin

Jazz Chisholm Jr. said he will not start wearing a protective cup after leaving Thursday’s game for treatment, despite the painful foul tip.

  • On Friday, New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm confirmed he will not start wearing a protective cup, one day after fouling a ball off his groin during Thursday's loss to the Chicago White Sox.
  • During Thursday's game, Chisholm exited in the fourth inning after taking a foul ball to the groin, writhing in pain as Aaron Judge and Trent Grisham smirked at the misfortune.
  • Regarding cup usage, Yankees manager Aaron Boone noted he wore a cup during his 12 years as a player, while Chisholm maintained he never wore one in the minor leagues, describing the pain as "a million."
  • Chisholm avoided serious injury and returned to the lineup Friday in the Bronx, providing relief for a team currently missing key players including Giancarlo Stanton and Austin Wells to injury.
  • Catcher J.C. Escarra emphasized the need to "protect the McNuggets," referencing the film The Longest Yard, while Chisholm stated he would recommend wearing a cup only if one does not trust their hands.
