Johnson leaves Giants-Dodgers game after incredible catch

Share

Bryce Johnson might have made the Play of the Year so far, but it came at a cost. 

In the fourth inning of the Giants' matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday at Oracle Park, the rookie outfielder robbed Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman of an extra-base hit with a leaping catch at the wall. 

Johnson, crashing very hard into the wall, was shaken up on the play and eventually walked off the field with Giants trainers. 

The 27-year-old entered the game in center field after right fielder Michael Conforto's left calf tightened up while running the bases earlier in the game. 

The Giants later announced Johnson was evaluated for a concussion.
