Yankees' Jasson Domínguez Leaves Game After Crashing Into Left-Field Wall Catching Leadoff Drive

The Yankees said the 23-year-old will be monitored for several days after the collision, and he is also getting an MRI on his left shoulder.

  • On Thursday, May 7, 2026, Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez was carted off the field after crashing into the left-field wall while making a catch against the Texas Rangers on the game's first play.
  • Dominguez ran 81 feet to catch Brandon Nimmo's 101 mph shot, gloving the ball 375 feet from the plate before his back and left shoulder slammed hard against the wall, creating a whiplash effect.
  • Team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad examined Dominguez at Yankee Stadium and performed an initial concussion assessment; he was later transported to New York Presbyterian Hospital for a left shoulder MRI.
  • Third baseman Ryan McMahon entered the game to replace Dominguez, while Amed Rosario shifted from third base to right field and Cody Bellinger moved from right to left field.
  • Dominguez remains in concussion protocol and will be "monitored and evaluated over the next several days" according to the Yankees to determine his availability for upcoming games.
