Yankees shortstop Volpe hurts shoulder, X-rays negative but could have more tests
- Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe injured his left shoulder during a diving play in the eighth inning of Saturday's game in Tampa Bay.
- Volpe made a diving attempt to field Christopher Morel's eighth-inning single, which triggered a two-run rally and contributed to Tampa Bay's 3-2 victory, but he landed painfully in the process.
- Despite being slow to rise and clutching his shoulder, Volpe remained in the game, took swings between innings, and underwent negative X-rays after the loss.
- Volpe said, "I felt a pop in my shoulder," but also noted,"all the movements and everything feel good," while his manager Boone reported he felt fine strength-wise.
- Volpe will be re-evaluated Sunday and may need an MRI, while the Yankees hope he recovers amid multiple key player absences and roster challenges.
