    Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano left Wednesday night's game against the Kansas City Royals after being nailed by a 93 mph fastball in the batting helmet.

    The Yankees said a CT scan came back negative and said Cano will be day to day.

    In the fifth inning against the Royals, Cano came to bat with two outs and the bases empty against reliever Nate Adcock. A 1-1 Adcock fastball hit Cano above the bill of his helmet, knocking him to the dirt in the batter's box.

    Cano gathered himself, but remained on the ground. Manager Joe Girardi and team trainer Steve Donohue came sprinting from the dugout to check on him. Cano's eyes were open and he even walked down to first base as if he would stay in the game.
