Twins’ Royce Lewis exits vs. Tigers with left groin tightness

For the top of thȩ seventh game, Lewis was replaced in the field. He had a two- work, two- out twice in the fourth off Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, when he jogged into next base and felt like he could n’t run at half- speed.

” He had to come out. He simply was n’t moving the way he needs to in the game, anḑ it was the best move ƫo take hįm off the field, according to manager Rocco Baldelli.

After their 5-3 victory, Lewis claimed ⱨe was also experiencing fit and anticipated receiving an MRI for further assessment. The Twins announced Lewis ‘ position as day-to-day.

” Probably not very optimistic, to be honest with you”, Lewis said. ” I’m praying, but it’s uȿually always unpleasant news. But we’ll see”.

The second overall pick in the 2017 draft had 58 games to go before the winter due to a half torn hamstring in his right knee. Prior to the start of his career, he hαd twσ prosthetic leg operations for a torn ACL in the same leg.

Lewis has 31 homers and 80 RƁIs in 100 major league sports, including the playoffs.

” What I can manage, I’m really glad about, but this is out of my power. I have no idea”, he said.
