Yankees' Jacoby Ellsbury exits after colliding with wall

New York Yankees outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury left Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals after colliding with the wall while making a catch in the first inning.

What It Means:

Ellsbury ran into the wall after making a catch on a long fly ball by Alcides Escobar to lead off the first inning. He remained in the game the rest of the inning but was replaced in the lineup and the field by Aaron Hicks to start the second. The Yankees will update his status after the game.

Ellsbury is slashing .281/.349/.422 with four home runs, eight stolen bases, and 19 runs scored in 153 plate appearances this season.
