Astros' Yordan Alvarez carted off field after scary collision with Jeremy Peña vs. Mets

Houston Astros left fielder Yordan Alvarez was carted off the field on Wednesday afternoon after a scary collision with shortstop Jeremy Peña.

Alvarez and Peña were both tracking a fly ball hit into shallow left field in the eighth inning of the Astros’ 2-0 win over the New York Mets at Citi Field. Peña caught the ball, but made direct contact with Alvarez just after doing so.

The two remained down for quite some time and were clearly shaken up. Peña walked off the field under his own power and didn’t return. Alvarez did stand up, but he was then carted off the field.
