Diamondbacks’ C Gabriel Moreno removed from Game 2 with head injury

In the 3rd inning of the Diamondbacks’ Game 2 matchup against the Brewers, catcher Gabriel Moreno was forced to exit the game prematurely due to a head injury.

The incident occurred when Brice Turang extended his bat a bit too far on a 3-2 count swing, causing the bat to inadvertently make contact with Moreno’s head.

Although Moreno managed to complete the inning on the field, the team opted to replace him with Jose Herrera in the 3rd as a precaution.
