Yastrzemski felt a pop in his hamstring while trying to chase down a shallow pop fly that resulted in the decisive runs of Giants’ loss.
MEXICO CITY — Much was made about the thin air here, a mile and a half above sea level, but it was the equally unique playing surface below it that factored in to the Giants’ two losses Sunday: the second game of their international series against the Padres, 6-4, and center fielder Mike Yastrzemski, to a hamstring injury.
“I really think Yaz, if he’s healthy on that play all the way through the play,” manager Gabe Kapler said, “I think he records that out.” But he got there, and the Giants were left to wonder what would’ve happened had they been playing on grass. “Gonna have to probably extend mustache May into June now,” he said. “We’ll see how it goes. It’s a bummer, but trying to just keep the spirits high and see where it goes tomorrow.”
