Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Jesús Sánchez left Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles with an injury after a fan threw a baseball at him in right field at Camden Yards.
Video from the Peacock broadcast showed a projectile hitting Sánchez as he seemed to be exchanging words with someone in the stands.

The Orioles "identified the fan and removed them from the ballpark while we conduct a thorough investigation," a team spokesperson said in a statement obtained by Andy Kostka of the Baltimore Banner.
