Oswaldo Cabrera Violation: Yankees Infieldder leaves game against Mariner in the ambulance with lower assault

The third Baseman of New York Yankees, Oswaldo Cabrera, was taken in an ambulance during the ninth of the 11: 5 victory against the Seattle Mariners (Box Score). Cabrera suffered an obvious injury in the lower leg when he aimed at the third basis for a victim flying by Aaron Richter.

Cabreras ankle seemed to be caught under his own body weight when he escaped the day of the Seattle Catcher Cal Raleigh and gripped back to Home -Zeller.

The 26 -year -old Cabrera competed on Monday and scored with a Homerun and 11 runs in the course of his first 33 games this season .243/.319/.311 (81 ops+). He joined this season after publishing a slash line of .233/.291/.352 (80 OPS+) with 19 Home Runs and 15 stolen bases in his first 267 career games.

Cabrera went 1 for 4 in the game on Monday and reached the ninth inn by removing the Mariners reliever Troy Taylor. He would advance to second place on a Hitsman and then go to third place on a single from Trent Grisham. (Grisham was gained twice in the game and helped the Yankees to build their lead on the way.)

The Yankees are expected to activate the experienced Infieldder DJ Lemahieu before the game on Tuesday. If the violation of Cabrera is as serious as it seems, Lemahieu can put in the third basis without much friction – either from a starting line -up or an active list of the list. Lemahieu had missed the first month of the season with a calf injury.

“DJ Lemahieu could fall out of bed and beat,” said manager Aaron Boone before the game on Monday. “I think the greatest thing that has stumbled over the years are the gnawing, different injuries that have appeared and slowed him down.”

The Yankees left the game on Monday with a 24:17 record, good for first place in the American League East. The Boston Red Sox lost on Monday, which means that the Yankees will come with a lead of three games in the division on Tuesday.
