Yankees’ eighth straight win overshadowed by Juan Soto’s early injury exit
NY Post
A dream start to the Yankees’ season and Juan Soto’s time in The Bronx took its first wrong turn on Thursday, as the superstar outfielder was removed from an 8-5 win over the Twins with left forearm discomfort.
Soto’s departure following a 56-minute rain delay before the top of the sixth overshadowed the Yankees’ season-high eighth straight win.
He’s set to get imaging on Friday after being checked out by the training staff and team physician Dr. Chris Ahmad during the delay Thursday and it was decided not to risk putting Soto back in the game.
“When you take a player the caliber of Juan out of a game, there’s always concern about that,’’ Aaron Boone said. “But we’re hoping we’re just being cautious here.”
