Corey Seager Exits Game with Hamstring Tightness, Ends 16-Game Hitting Streak
  • 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.
