Jazz Chisholm Jr. injury scare gives Yankees fans another reason to hate Astros

What looked to be a promising road series in Houston on Tuesday night has turned into nothing but a nightmare for the New York Yankees. After Wednesday night's collapse and umpire drama, Jazz Chisholm Jr. left Thursday night's game with an injury.

In the bottom of the third inning, Austin Wells caught Jose Altuve stealing and it appeared as if Chisholm injured his knee on Altuve's slide attempt. There was no malice, there was no major collision, there was no immediate moment of "oh no!". It looked relatively minor.

In fact, Chisholm made it into the batter's box in the top half of the inning, so it seemed as if there wasn't much to worry about.
