The Cardinals got tough news ahead of Sunday’s rubber matchup with the Yankees, placing rookie center fielder Victor Scott II on the 10-day injured list with a left ankle sprain.
Scott’s injury came in the third inning of Saturday’s 12–8 loss after attempting to rob the Yankees’s Aaron Judge of a solo home run in right-center.
After crashing into the wall and staying down for several minutes, Scott remained in the game but was visibly hobbled. Three innings later, he was down the tunnel.
