Corey Seager Exits Game with Hamstring Tightness, Ends 16-Game Hitting Streak
June 6, 2024
Texas Rangers All-Star shortstop Corey Seager exited Wednesday night's game against the Detroit Tigers due to left hamstring tightness after hitting an RBI single in the second inning.
It remains uncertain if Seager will miss more playing time, but fantasy managers are hopeful for a minor setback.
Seager has had a strong season with a .271 batting average, 13 home runs, and 30 RBI in 57 games.
His hitting streak was snapped at 16 games due to the injury.
Ezequiel Duran replaced Seager in the game and may see increased playing time if Seager is sidelined.
Manager Bruce Bochy will evaluate Seager's condition after a day off on Thursday, with no immediate plans for scans.
The Rangers are already dealing with injuries to key players and cannot afford another extended absence.
Tigers starter Kenta Maeda also left the game after throwing only two pitches due to right-side rib discomfort, complicating the Tigers' pitching rotation.
