Cabrera was hurt on an awkward slide when he reached back for the plate and scored the Yankees' final run on Aaron Judge's sacrifice fly. Cabrera, a 26-year-old native of Venezuela, writhed on the ground and stayed down for several minutes while being attended to by medical staff. Cabrera was then taken to a local hospital with team athletic trainer Tim Lentych
