Tyler Austin, a former New York Yankees infielder currently with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars in Japan, suffered a freak injury while changing his jersey after being tagged out at home plate during a game against the Hanshin Tigers. The 33-year-old hit his head on the dugout ceiling while changing, leading to his removal from the game as a precautionary measure. Austin has been enjoying a strong season, currently slashing .322/.393/.620 with 22 home runs and 60 RBIs. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox's Mickey Gasper has been sidelined with a back injury, which he sustained while packing to move from Boston to Triple-A Worcester. In roster news, the Seattle Mariners placed Luis Castillo on the 15-day Injured List due to a left hamstring strain and transferred Yimi García to the 60-day Injured List due to right elbow inflammation.
