Watch as Toronto Blue Jays' Teoscar Hernandez grounds out and leaves the game against the New York Yankees with an apparent injury.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Teoscar Hernandez is scheduled for an MRI on Thursday after exiting Wednesday's game against the New York Yankees with left side discomfort.

After taking a big cut on a swing in the sixth inning, Hernandez held his left side. He got back in the batter's box and hit a grounder, holding his left side again while making his way slowly down the baseline.

Hernandez slashed .296/.346/.524 with 32 home runs and 116 RBIs last season.

The 29-year-old was off to a good start this year, hitting .333 with one homer and three RBIs in six games.
