Willy Adames left the Brewers’ game against the Giants on Friday after he was struck by a foul ball from his teammate Brian Anderson during the bottom of the second inning.
The Brewers shortstop was sitting in the dugout when Anderson smacked a line drive that hit Adames on the left side of his head. The 27-year-old immediately walked to the steps, sat on the bench, leaned on Milwaukee’s associate pitching coach Walker McKinven before receiving attention from medical officials.
After a brief pause in the game for Adames to receive medical attention, he walked to the team’s clubhouse. Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin later reported that Adames received a scan and exited American Family Field to go to the hospital for additional testing and evaluation.
