Xander Bogaerts Leaves Game With Shoulder Injury 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue May 21, 2024 11:58 am

Xander Bogaerts left the San Diego Padres\' game against the Atlanta Braves on Monday with a left shoulder injury.

Bogaerts landed on the shoulder while diving for a bases-loaded grounder hit by Ronald Acuna, Jr. in the third inning. Bogaerts stopped the grounder but was unable to make a throw on Acuna\'s run-scoring infield hit.

He immediately signaled to the bench for assistance, and a trainer examined the second baseman before escorting him off the field.

Mike Shildt said imaging tests on Bogaerts\' shoulder were negative and more tests had been scheduled.

\"The initial feedback is the best-case scenario,\" Shildt said.
