(Reuters) - Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Troy Tulowitzki suffered a small crack in his left shoulder blade on Saturday and faces a spell on the sidelines for the American League East division leaders.

Tulowitzki collided with Toronto center fielder Kevin Pillar while pursuing a pop-up during the second inning of his team's 9-5 win over the New York Yankees, the first game of a doubleheader.

The shortstop, who walked off the field on his own, appeared to also injure his upper back on the play and will undergo further X-rays.
