Houston clears Jose Altuve of a concussion after collision

Houston Astros manager A.J. Hinch said a concussion has been ruled out for second baseman Jose Altuve after colliding with teammate Teoscar Hernandez in the eighth inning of Tuesday's win over the Cleveland Indians.

What It Means:

The two teammates were immediately removed from the game. While Altuve appears to have avoided any serious injury and is considered day-to-day, it sounds like Hernandez suffered some severe damage to his left knee.

Altuve is batting .312/.386/.442 with two home runs, seven RBI's, seven stolen bases and 11 runs scored in 88 plate appearances this season.
