TORONTO — All-star shortstop Bo Bichette is day to day with right knee discomfort.

Bichette left the Toronto Blue Jays 4-2 loss to the Baltimore Orioles last night.

He seemingly jammed his knee when stopping suddenly while running the basepaths.

An MRI to the 25-year-old’s knee revealed no significant structural damage, just some inflammation.

Blue Jays manager John Schnedier says the team will know more in the coming days.

Bichette leads Toronto with a .321 average this season and 17 home runs.

He has the highest batting average in the American League and fourth best in Major League Baseball.
