Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa and outfielder Byron Buxton exited Thursday’s game against the Baltimore Orioles (GameTracker) after colliding during the bottom of the third inning. The two were each tracking a Cedric Mullins fly ball, with Correa keeping his back to the outfield and Buxton coming in from center. Buxton was able to snag the ball before making contact. Both went down after appearing to knock heads. Correa left immediately and Buxton initially stayed in the game before departing.
Both players are now in concussion protocol, the team announced.
Here’s a look at the play in question:
Correa, 30, came into play on Thursday in the midst of a disappointing season. Over his first 40 games, he hit .238/.276/.333 (70 OPS+) with two home runs and 21 more strikeouts than walks. Correa recorded multiple hits in two of his last three games, providing some hope that he was in the process of correcting his course.
Buxton, 31, has been one of the most productive players on the Twins roster. Through his first 40 games, he’s batted .258/.310/.503 (124 OPS+) while providing his usual excellent defense in center field. Buxton had lifted his 10th home run of the season an inning prior to the collision.
It’s too soon to know whether Correa or Buxton’s availability will be impacted heading forward. The Twins are already without a few key players: rookie infielder Luke Keaschall has been on the injured list with a fractured forearm he suffered in just his seventh big-league game and outfielder Matt Wallner has been sidelined for a month by a strained hamstring.
Nevertheless, the Twins entered Thursday with a 23-20 record, the byproduct of a 10-game winning streak that already includes five victories against the Orioles. Minnesota’s hot tear has helped atone for a putrid 4-11 start to the year.

Warriors’ Jimmy Butler on potential two-year window for another NBA title: ‘We have a lot of great basketball left ahead of us’
After a season-ending loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday, the Golden State Warriors' chance at another NBA championship came to a close. Though some think the Warriors are heading toward the end of an era, Golden State forward Jimmy Butler is confident there is more to come from this team.The contracts of Butler, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green all expire at the same time — in two years, after the 2026-2027 season. Head coach Steve Kerr's contract is up after next season, after signing a two-year extension last year. This likely gives the Warriors a limited window to win another championship with its current star core.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementDuring a postseason press conference on Thursday, Butler was asked if he sees the next two years as a window for a championship. The forward agreed, but added that it could be even longer."If […]
Fernando Sarney assume presidência da CBF nesta sexta-feira após decisão da Justiça do Rio; entenda por que
Após decisão do desembargador Gabriel Zefiro, do Tribunal de Justiça do Rio, em afastar o presidente Ednaldo Rodrigues da CBF, o vice Fernando Sarney assumirá o cargo nesta sexta-feira. Ednaldo está no Paraguai em congresso da Fifa e não poderá retornar ao cargo no retorno ao Brasil. Segundo a decisão, Sarney ocupará o cargo por ser o mais antigo da instituição. De acordo com fontes ouvidas pelo blog, a decisão considera os vices da época do presidente Rogério Caboclo, já que para a Justiça, a eleição de Ednaldo foi anulada. "Depois de tento tempo, com idas e vindas, negociações, alinhamentos políticos e desalinhamentos políticos, admito que soa bastante lógico colocar a responsabilidade pela realização do pleito eleitoral da CBF nas mãos de um dos seus Vice-Presidentes, ainda mais sendo ele o mais antigo na instituição, consoante esclarece o site da […]
