With the scored tied 6-6 in the top of the 8th inning on Saturday, Kolten Wong fought the sun as he charged out to shallow right center to go for a flare off the bat of Chicago’s Chris Valiaka. Wong nearly made the catch, but wound up tumbling to the ground and hitting the back of his head. He stayed down for a few moments as trainers rushed out before Wong slowly walked off the field under his own power.
