George Springer continues to wow us on a nightly basis, but this time it might be at his own expense.

The Houston Astros right fielder was taken out of the game in the eighth inning after robbing Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre of extra bases.

"That was a scary play," Astros manager A.J. Hinch said following the game. "He's pretty banged up. … evaluated for a (sic) concussion and see how his body feels overnight."

Hinch added that Springer will not speak to the media tonight and that he'll be withheld from Wednesday night's game, where Colby Rasmus will take his place.
