SEATTLE — New York Yankees infielder Oswaldo Cabrera suffered what appeared to be a gruesome left ankle injury during the ninth inning of Monday night's 11-5 win against the Seattle Mariners.
Scoring from third base on an Aaron Judge sacrifice fly to medium left field, Cabrera twisted to avoid the tag from catcher Cal Raleigh, his momentum carrying him past the plate.
Cabrera reached back to touch home plate safely, then curled in pain and was attended to by Yankees head athletic trainer Tim Lentych, as several concerned teammates — led by Judge — knelt or stood near the home plate area.
