Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is in concussion protocol, manager Aaron Boone said after Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Detroit Tigers.
"Just saw him right now," Boone said. "He's in concussion protocol, so we'll kind of see how he's doing tomorrow."
Chisholm has not been diagnosed with a concussion, Boone added.
"No," Boone said when asked if Chisholm was diagnosed with a concussion. "No, he's just in the protocol."
Chisholm left the game after colliding with Jasson Domínguez in shallow right field on Hao-Yu Lee's fly ball, which Domínguez caught for the second out.
"Looks like he kind of got smoked there," said left fielder Cody Bellinger. "I haven't watched it yet, but hope he's doing good. I haven't seen him yet, so, obviously, probably get an update tomorrow on it."
Domínguez's left arm made contact with Chisholm's head after Chisholm did not peel off the route to the ball while Domínguez charged in.
"It was really unfortunate," Domínguez said. "I mean, they were playing infield in. So, as soon as he hit the ball, in my mind, I decided, 'I've got to go catch that ball.' I called it, but obviously I didn't call it loud enough. But really unfortunate, what happened."
Chisholm, who is slashing .222/.305/.398 with 12 home runs and 33 RBI through 81 games, struck out in the second inning -- his only at-bat of the game -- while batting from the cleanup spot.
He was replaced by Oswaldo Cabrera, whose 0-for-3 evening included two strikeouts.
