Yankees outfielder Trent Grisham left Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with an apparent leg injury.

The team later announced that Grisham was dealing with left knee discomfort and will undergo imaging.

Grisham legged out a double to left field with two outs in the second inning and looked to be in discomfort after reaching second base, grabbing at his left leg.

"I don’t want to speculate too much. For him to come out of the game definitely raises your eyebrow," manager Aaron Boone said after the 2-1 loss. "We’ll see what we have and go from there."

The Yankees skipper said that he initially thought it was a calf issue, but when Grisham popped up from his slide into second base on the double, the veteran outfielder felt something on the side of his knee.

“Just felt weird in my knee for a little bit," Grisham said after the game. "It didn’t feel like something I should mess with. Got out of the game and we’ll see tomorrow.”

Grisham stayed in the game through the third and fourth innings, but was replaced by Spencer Jones on defense in the top of the fifth inning.

"Before his at-bat, we wanted to see how he was and we felt we needed to get him out of there at that point," Boone said.

Grisham said he went back out to the field because he thought it would get better over time, but it didn't. He felt it was better not to risk it and get imaging done, but was optimistic about the health of his knee.

After smashing a career-high 34 home runs in 2025, Grisham has been having a down year at the plate, hitting just .174 with six homers through 49 games.
