George Springer gets massive injury update for ALCS Game 6

The Toronto Blue Jays witnessed George Springer walk off in discomfort in Friday’s game at Seattle. The designated hitter received a massive injury update ahead of Game 6 of the American League Championship Series (ALCS). Springer took a hit by pitch that forced him to leave. Baseball columnist Shi Davidi dropped this Saturday update. “John Schneider said George Springer is feeling better, CT Scan confirmed X-Rays that showed no fracture. Getting more treatment today,” Davidi posted on the social media website X, formerly Twitter. The manager Schneider added via Keegan Matheson of MLB.com that he’s “hopeful and optimistic” that Springer will swing the bat in Game 6. “Just tell me he’s good to go and he’s good to go. Georgie’s played through a lot, probably more than you guys know,” Schneider shared via Matheson.
