The New York Yankees managed a 4-3 extra-innings win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, but the triumph was overshadowed by disheartening news. Manager Aaron Boone revealed post-game that Jasson Dominguez, the team’s star prospect, has a torn UCL in his right elbow.

Initially slated to be in the starting lineup, Dominguez was a late scratch due to what was first termed as right elbow inflammation. Isiah Kiner-Falefa was then moved to cover center field in his absence.
