CLEVELAND -- Guardians designated hitter David Fry was carted off the field in the sixth inning Tuesday night after being hit in the face by a pitch as he tried to bunt.

Fry squared around on a 99 mph fastball from Detroit's Tarik Skubal and the pitch struck him in the nose and mouth area before deflecting off his bat.

As Fry collapsed in the batter's box and grabbed his face, a visibly shaken Skubal threw off his glove and cap as Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt and trainers rushed onto the field.
