An umpire was hospitalized Wednesday after being hit in the head by a relay throw during the Yankees-Guardians game in Cleveland.
MLB umpire Larry Vanover was hospitalized Wednesday after being hit in the head by a relay throw from Guardians second baseman Andres Gimenez in the fifth inning of a game against the Yankees.“They’re doing a CAT scan. He’s got a pretty good-sized knot on his left side … above his ear,” umpire Chris Guccione told a pool reporter about Vanover’s condition.
“They’re going to do a concussion test and it sounded like he was coherent and that he knew kind of what was going on. But he did have that glazed look on him. He’s going to be at the hospital for the rest of the night maybe. I’m glad he was able to walk he was able to get to the hospital. That was scary. Very hard to focus after that after you see a colleague get hit. But they gave me updates, and I was like, ‘All right. He’s good. He’s in safe hands.’ So, we moved on.
With his team trailing 3-0, Yankees catcher Kyle Higashioka hit a long drive off the top of the wall in center field in the top of the fifth inning.
