Washington Nationals prospect Daylen Lile was carted off the field and taken to a hospital after trying to rob a home run against the Boston Red Sox.
There was a scary moment in the Grapefruit League Saturday when a player had to be carted off the field after he tried to rob a home run.
In Fort Myers, the Boston Red Sox were hosting the Washington Nationals in spring training action, and Daylen Lile was making his first appearance of the spring.
Lile was playing right field for the Nationals when Tyler Miller crushed a fly ball toward the right-center field gap at JetBlue Park at Fenway South in Fort Myers.
Miller’s blast cleared the wall, but not without a valiant effort by Lile to record an out. The 21-year-old leaped to try to rob Miller of a solo shot, but he flipped over the wall instead.
