Yankees outfielder Jasson Domínguez was carted off after a hard collision with the left-field wall and placed in MLB concussion protocol. Follow-up reporting says an MRI showed a low-grade left AC joint sprain and he is expected to miss a few weeks.
Yankees outfielder Jasson Domínguez was carted off after a hard collision with the left-field wall during the team’s game against the Rangers on May 7, 2026, and was placed in MLB concussion protocol.
Domínguez was injured while making a catch in left field. He was removed from the game on a medical cart and checked by team medical staff.
MLB.com’s official Yankees coverage said Domínguez was in concussion protocol after the collision. AP reporting later said he was taken for an MRI, and follow-up coverage said the scan showed a low-grade AC joint sprain in his left shoulder.
That later reporting also said Yankees manager Aaron Boone expected Domínguez to miss a few weeks.
The latest available reporting does not indicate a return date, and the team has not publicly said whether any additional testing will change the diagnosis or timeline. The next update is likely to come once the Yankees provide more detail on his status or place him on the injured list.
