— -- CHICAGO --  Reports of the surgery surfaced following the game.

Machado sprained his right knee while taking a swing against the Yankees on Aug. 11. He dropped in a heap in the batter's box and limped off the field, assisted by his manager and trainer.

The 2013 Gold Glove winner is hitting .278 with 12 homers and 32 RBIs in 82 games. He missed the first month of the season while recovering from surgery on his left knee.

The AL East-leading Orioles are 73-53 this season.
