If you thought Jazz Chisholm Jr. had already had enough drama this week… congratulations, because baseball said, “Hold my beer.”
Less than 24 hours after getting ejected against the Red Sox for treating his batting helmet like it owed him money, Jazz somehow managed to top himself Monday night against the Detroit Tigers.
This time, instead of fighting his helmet…
He fought his own teammate.
In the bottom of the fourth inning, Jazz and Jasson Domínguez both took off chasing a fly ball into shallow right field like two New Yorkers sprinting for the last bacon, egg and cheese at the deli after a snowstorm.
Only one problem…
Nobody called for it.
BOOM!
Domínguez made the catch.
Jazz made contact with Domínguez.
The baseball survived.
Jazz’s brain said, “I’m gonna clock out for a few minutes.”
He crashed to the ground and stayed there long enough for Yankees fans to stop breathing. Aaron Boone and the training staff came running out faster than Yankees fans race to X after David Bednar blows another save.
Thankfully, Jazz got up under his own power and walked off the field, but the Yankees later announced that he was examined by team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad and immediately entered concussion protocol.
That’s absolutely the right move.
Concussions are serious, and everyone should hope Jazz makes a full recovery before returning to the field.
But if you’re a Yankees fan, you have to be asking one question…
Who cursed this baseball team?
Seriously.
Aaron Judge gets hurt.
The pitching staff has looked like a hospital waiting room for months.
Players can’t stay healthy.
Now Jazz gets knocked out by his own teammate.
At this point, the Yankees don’t need another bat at the trade deadline…
They need an exorcist.
Forget adding bullpen help.
Call Ghostbusters.
This team has more collisions than the Long Island Expressway at rush hour.
And let’s be honest…
Jazz has packed more headlines into the last 48 hours than most players do all season.
Sunday, he gets ejected after slamming his helmet into the dirt like it personally insulted his family.
Monday, he gets leveled by his own center fielder.
What’s next?
He’s going to argue with the foul pole because it didn’t move over enough?
As for his season, it’s been a frustrating one.
The two-time All-Star is hitting just .223 with 12 home runs, 33 RBIs and a .706 OPS. Those numbers are well below what both he and the Yankees expected, especially with free agency looming after the season.
Ironically, this has actually been one of Jazz’s healthier seasons…
Until now.
The timing couldn’t be much worse.
The Yankees need his energy, his speed, and his athleticism if they’re going to make a serious run in October.
Hopefully this concussion protocol is simply precautionary, and Jazz is back on the field sooner rather than later.
Because at the rate this season is going…
The Yankees might have to start putting warning labels on their own outfielders.
“Caution: Teammates may be more dangerous than the opposing lineup.”
Only the Yankees could turn catching a routine fly ball into a demolition derby.
Get well soon, Jazz.

My name is Errol Marks and I’d like to tell you why I believe I can be a major asset to your station. I’m from a small town in Long Island, NY and from a very young age I’ve always had a love for sports talk radio. Growing up, I would listen religiously to shows like Mike and the Mad Dog, Mike and Mike, and Imus in the Morning and studied what made those shows so great. I’ve made it my goal to be as influential as the hosts I grew up listening to, and with my knowledge of all major sports, enthusiastic and fearless personality, and my preparation skills, I know I can get to that level. This is an art and a medium that I’m passionate about and one that I feel can never be replaced.
What makes my story so unique goes beyond my 10+ years of experience in sports media. In addition to over ten years of creating and hosting sports talk radio shows, I created the World Wide Sports Radio Network - one of the first ever digital sports radio networks - in 2012. Since the network began, we have had some of the best content in digital sports media. We have six quality shows on our network covering all sports and sports betting. I’m currently hosting New York’s Sports Loud Mouth, and you can find that show and the rest of our great shows at https://worldwidesportsradio.com/.
Our network’s content and listenership has grown significantly year to year and, in the past year, we’ve achieved 3.6 million minutes listened on our audio stream, over 29k followers on tik tok, 500k viewed on YouTube, 1.7 million downloads on Apple Podcasts, and 906,917 plays on Spotify. While we are enjoying a continued increase in growth, I feel that we can take this to a new level and a new audience with your help.
My goal since the day I started is to become the greatest and most recognizable sports radio show host in the country. I can guarantee that nobody in this industry currently has my passion, personality or ability to shape the future of sports broadcasting and entertainment like I do. If given the opportunity, I hope to further share my story and many talents with you and your station.
