Twins' Byron Buxton Leaves Game With Right Knee Soreness

May 2, 2024 8:34 AM

Byron Buxton left Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox in the second inning because of right knee soreness after an unsuccessful attempt to steal second base for the Minnesota Twins.

Buxton, who singled leading off the inning, didn't slide into second and was thrown out. Buxton walked off the field slowly and was replaced in the bottom half of the inning.

He was limited to 85 games as a designated hitter last season because of a right knee injury. Rocco Baldelli said Buxton would undergo imaging on the knee.
