Guardians’ José Ramírez Sidelined with Bruised Forearm After Being Hit by Pitch

  • On June 26, 2025, in the fourth inning of the Guardians' game against Toronto, José Ramírez was struck on the forearm by a 95 mph pitch thrown by Blue Jays hurler Kevin Gausman, which led to Ramírez being removed from the lineup the following day.
  • The incident followed Vladimir Guerrero Jr. being hit by a Tanner Bibee fastball in the third inning, which escalated tensions and led to both benches receiving warnings during the game.
  • After being hit, Ramírez remained in the game for a time but eventually exited due to a swollen right forearm; X-rays showed no fracture, and Guardians manager Stephen Vogt listed him as day-to-day, expressing hope for his return by Saturday.
  • Toronto won the game 6-0 behind Gausman's eight shutout innings with six strikeouts, while Tanner Bibee, who unintentionally hit Guerrero Jr., expressed frustration over the escalating hostility between the teams.
  • Ramírez's absence marks only his third missed game this season despite his status as the Guardians' top player, and his potential return is significant as Cleveland fights for a postseason spot amid challenges in the American League Central.
