TORONTO (AP) — Blue Jays outfielder Nathan Lukes left Game 1 of the AL Championship Series against Seattle on Sunday after bruising a knee.
Lukes fouled a ball off his right knee in the first, falling in pain, but stayed in the game and drew a 12-pitch walk. He flied out leading off the third and was replaced by Myles Straw for the start of the fourth.
"There's no fracture or anything... we'll see how he his tomorrow."
