TORONTO – The Toronto Blue Jays placed first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. on the seven-day injured list Saturday with a concussion.
The six-time all-star left Friday’s 3-1 win over the New York Yankees after taking a knee to the head in the sixth inning.
Yankees shortstop George Lombard Jr. tried to leap over a sliding Guerrero at third base when his knee and thigh struck Guerrero’s head, which sent Guerrero’s helmet flying.
