Yankees’ Cabrera Faces Uncertain Recovery After Injury

New York Yankees third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera suffered a severe ankle injury while sliding into home during the ninth inning of an 11-5 victory over the Seattle Mariners, leaving the field in an ambulance. Cabrera, despite being in visible pain, asked teammate Aaron Judge if he had scored, demonstrating his dedication to the team. Teammates and manager Aaron Boone described Cabrera as a model teammate and person, and the clubhouse mood turned somber. DJ LeMahieu, recently recovering from injury, is expected to move to third base to fill Cabrera's spot. The Yankees continue to struggle with infield injuries as they await further medical evaluation to determine Cabrera’s recovery timeline. The team's strong offensive performance was overshadowed by concern for Cabrera.
