New York Yankees' Gary Sanchez exits game with injured hand, X-rays negative

NEW YORK -- New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez left Saturday's game an inning after taking a foul ball off his right hand.

New York said X-rays of Sanchez's hand were negative and that he has a contusion on his right index and middle fingers. The club said he's day to day.

Sánchez's throwing hand was unprotected when Tampa Bay's Randy Arozarena tipped a pitch that appeared to hit Sánchez in the knuckles in the fourth inning.

Sánchez fell to the ground and writhed in pain before a trainer came out to inspect him.
