Playing right field for the White Sox in Sunday's 9-0 Cactus League win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Glendale, Arizona, Andrew Vaughn made a diving catch in the fourth inning and injured his right hip.

A natural first baseman, Vaughn had to be carted off the field at Camelback Ranch.

According to the Sox, Vaughn has "right hip discomfort and is undergoing further evaluation."

As a rookie last season, Vaughn hit .235/.309/.396 with 15 home runs and 48 RBI in 127 games.

The White Sox' first-round draft pick in 2019 (No. 3 overall) played 95 games in left field, 18 in right and 15 at first base, and he was also used at second and third base.

In Sunday's win over Los Angeles - sparked by Luis Robert's 2 home runs - third baseman Jake Burger also exited the game with left ankle discomfort.
