CHICAGO -- White Sox first baseman Miguel Vargas left Thursday's game against the New York Yankees in the fifth inning because of a left wrist contusion three innings after hitting his first career grand slam.
Vargas was hurt while trying to stretch for Curtis Mead's wide throw from just behind third base on a chopper by Aaron Judge. It appeared Judge's left leg struck Vargas' left hand (glove hand) as he ran to first. Vargas crumpled to the ground in pain.
Judge was awarded a single on the play and advanced to second on the wide throw that also allowed Ben Rice to score from first, snapping a 4-all tie.
