Gary Sanchez can’t escape Yankees’ injury fate

DETROIT — At this rate, the Yankees will cruise to the postseason, but might not have anyone left to play in them.

On a day where Edwin Encarnacion left the first game of a doubleheader against the Tigers with a strained left oblique and J.A. Happ’s biceps tendinitis was revealed following his Game 1 outing, the Yankees’ injury bug continued in the second game when Gary Sanchez left the game with left groin tightness before the bottom of the fourth.

He was replaced behind the plate by Kyle Higashioka.

Sanchez attempted to steal second — and was thrown out — to end the top of the third. He remained in the game and caught the bottom of the third before Higashioka entered.

Sanchez was sidelined twice this season with lower body injuries, once with a strained groin and then with a left calf injury.
