Carlos Correa, Byron Buxton collide in scary Twins moment
Share this @internewscast.com

There was a scary moment during Thursday’s game between the Twins and the Orioles.

In a game at Camden Yards, Minnesota’s outfielder Byron Buxton and infielder Carlos Correa collided on a short fly ball to shallow center field during the third inning.

Buxton and Correa bumped heads as they crashed into each other, but the outfielder was able to hold onto the ball to make the play.

Trainers immediately assessed both players after the incident, and Correa left the game. Jonah Bride came in to take his place.

Buxton was able to stay in the game briefly, but he ultimately left the game in the fourth inning and was replaced by Ty France.

Buxton and Correa both placed in the concussion protocol after the game.

Twins acting manager Jayce Tingler explained to reporters, “It was one of those fly balls that fell right between them. They were both hustling towards it, and with a lively crowd shouting, communication was tough. Unfortunately, they collided and hit heads.”

“You’re concerned anytime players kind of bang heads or have a head collision,” Tingler added. “I think the whole thing took six, seven minutes. And it’s a scary situation. … Buck obviously stayed in for the half-inning, and Carlos walked off on his own.”

The Twins ended up besting the Orioles 4-0 — for their 11th straight win — thanks to seven scoreless innings from starting pitcher Chris Paddack, who shared his sympathy for his two teammates.

“You got that scary play that happened with Buck and Los — hate seeing that. Hope that they can get right over the next couple days as they’re in the concussion protocol,” Paddack told reporters. “But you got [Kody] Clemens, [who] played three or four positions today.

“You got Ty [France] that’s coming into the game. You got Jonah [Bride] that’s coming into the game. So we went to battle today, and there were a lot of people that stepped up.”
