Injured umpire Mahrley out until at least Sunday
Written by I Dig Sports
NEW YORK -- Umpire Nick Mahrley will miss his second straight series after sustaining a concussion.
He was injured while working the plate during Sunday's game between Colorado and the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium. Mahrley, 41, was hit in the neck by Giancarlo Stanton's shattered bat in the fifth inning. The barrel hit Mahrley on the left side of his mask, knocking it off.
After New York's 10-3 win, Major League Baseball said Mahrley was diagnosed with a concussion. MLB said Thursday he remains under evaluation and will be out through at least Sunday.
Mahrley made his major league debut on Aug. 3, 2017, and became a full-time member of the major league staff for the 2023 season.
