Poor Juan Uribe.
As the Indians’ 3B went to field a Mike Trout ground ball that came off the bat at 106mph, it took a bad hop, and caught the 37-year-old veteran right where the sun don’t shine.
Ouch. Here’s the impact in real-time, and I can assure you it doesn’t make it any prettier…

Uribe was down on the field for several minutes before being carted off, and understandably, he was in a world of pain.

Hopefully Uribe is alright, however he did leave the game.
Juan will exit after being hit by a ground ball in a very bad spot.
Changes:
Martinez to 3rd
Naquin to CF (will bat in Juan's spot)— Cleveland Guardians (@CleGuardians) June 12, 2016
And at least the Indians are trying to make light of the scary situation.
There was a Draymond Green joke here and we just flat out missed it.
Sorry guys. We will get better. https://t.co/vMQ1T3Yw9k
