The Philadelphia Phillies dropped a 2-1 heartbreaker to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday night, and to make matters worse, they lost catcher JT Realmuto in the bottom of the ninth inning to an injury.

Bo Bichette foul tipped a pitch from Jordan Romano and it smoked Realmuto in his crotch area, one of the most painful injuries possible for a catcher and a man for that matter. Realmuto told Phillies skipper Rob Thomson he's had worse, but it's still concerning:

“He's getting checked by the doctor right now,” Thomson said. “It's a pretty good one. He said he's had worse, but we'll see. We'll check him out tomorrow.”

Realmuto grimaced in pain on the field for a few minutes before exiting. However, he did walk off on his own, which is a promising sign. Expand Tweet
