Blue Jays star Vlad Guerrero Jr. leaves loss to Pirates early with hamstring injury, considered day-to-day
Toronto Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. left Monday’s 5-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates with a hamstring injury.
Guerrero was pulled from the game after the sixth inning with what the team called left hamstring tightness. Guerrero had been openly complaining about his hamstring throughout the night at PNC Park, too.
After a base hit in the bottom of the first inning, Guerrero was spotted pointing at his hamstring and saying, “malo” toward someone in the dugout. That translates to “bad” in English.
Guerrero remained in the game after that, and made a wild play at first where he did the splits to make a catch and complete the out, which couldn’t have helped any. He popped right back up after that play and jogged off the field.
