Eduardo Escobar May Be Dealing With Vision Issues

New York Mets third baseman Eduardo Escobar was taken to the hospital on Thursday and is getting his vision checked after he appeared disoriented to teammates.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (wrist) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Seattle Mariners.

St. Louis Cardinals utility man Brendan Donovan batted second in the lineup against the Pittsburgh Pirates Wednesday and performed well, going 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored.
