Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho leaves game with left leg injury
TORONTO - Toronto Blue Jays centre-fielder Daulton Varsho left today's game against the Athletics with an apparent left leg injury.
He grabbed the back of his thigh after rounding second base in the third inning of the matinee at Rogers Centre.
Varsho hopped a few more steps before falling to the dirt near third base. He was in significant discomfort as training staff came out to assist.
Varsho was able to slowly walk off the field on his own. Toronto had a 6-5 lead at the time.
The Gold Glover was replaced in the lineup by outfielder Myles Straw.
Varsho missed the first few weeks of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery last year. In 24 games, he has a .207 average with eight homers and 20 RBIs.
