NEW YORK – George Lombard Jr. exited Saturday night's second game of a day-night doubleheader due to right knee discomfort.
Following his second at-bat against the Red Sox, the Yankees' rookie shortstop was replaced defensively in the top of the fourth inning at Yankee Stadium.
Lombard was headed for imaging Saturday night at New York-Presbyterian Hospital, according to the Yankees.
The play in question occurred during Lombard's first at-bat, in Saturday night's second inning against Red Sox's right-hander Brayan Bello.
Lombard winced as he checked his swing on an inside pitch, which drew the attention of Yanks manager Aaron Boone and head athletic trainer Tim Lentych.
