  • Jesús Sánchez left Toronto's 9-5 loss to Baltimore in the sixth inning after a ball thrown from the right-field stands struck his right wrist at Camden Yards.
  • X-rays were negative, and the Blue Jays said the injury was a bruised right wrist after Sánchez went 1-for-2 before being replaced by Yohendrick Piñango.
  • Fans near the play told the Baltimore Sun a roughly 13-year-old threw the ball accidentally, thinking Sánchez was asking to play catch before he turned away.
  • The Orioles said the fan was identified and removed from the ballpark while the club investigates what happened.
