New York Yankees center fielder Trent Grisham exited Friday night's game against the San Diego Padres after experiencing discomfort in his right hamstring. The injury became apparent during the second inning as Grisham ran to field a bloop single, leading him to consult with trainers in the dugout. Grisham had drawn a walk earlier in the inning before being thrown out on a stolen base attempt. He did not return for the bottom of the third, prompting the Yankees to move Spencer Jones to center field and insert Heliot Ramos into the lineup in right field. Grisham has previously dealt with a right hamstring strain this season that sidelined him for nearly three weeks between June and July. He entered the contest batting.211 with 18 home runs and 59 RBIs over 121 games.
