Springer went down after a two-seamer from Seattle reliever Bryan Woo clipped his right knee in the top of the seventh inning on Friday.
The Blue Jays held a 2-1 lead in the game at the time but the Mariners rallied to a 6-2 victory and a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series.
Schneider says that Springer had a CT scan and X-ray and both came back negative.
