WATCH: Castro nails Contreras in the jaw during collision |
Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward gunned down Starlin Castro as he tried to score in the sixth inning. Castro went out of the baseline and drilled Willson Conteras' face with his shoulder as he stutter-stepped and stopped awkwardly halfway down the line.
Conteras laid on the ground for a few minutes but was able to walk off the field under his own power. Check out the crazy play below. Willson Contreras takes a shot to the jaw from Starlin Castro. #Cubs pic.twitter.com/YR4XAaqPjA
