Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. exited Thursday's game against the Astros with an apparent knee injury.
In the bottom of the third inning, Jose Altuve tried to advance to second base after a passed ball. Catcher Austin Wells recovered the baseball and threw to second, where Chisholm slapped down his tag on Altuve, who slid into the infielder's left knee.
Chisholm would take his at-bat in the top of the fourth inning, but after he struck out, he gingerly walked back to the dugout. The YES broadcast caught Chisholm in the dugout signaling to the coaching staff that he needed to come out of the game.
The Yankees replaced Chisholm with Jose Caballero in the bottom of the fourth.
Chisholm was 0-for-2 with a strikeout before he left the game.
