San Francisco Giants’ first baseman Wilmer Flores exited a game against the Padres early after falling into the opposing dugout while attempting to catch a foul ball. The team later revealed that he had suffered a right shoulder contusion and a cut on his finger. Flores, who had a career year in 2023, hitting 22 doubles and 23 home runs with an .863 OPS over 126 games, will be re-evaluated to assess his condition.
Additionally, Giants’ starting pitcher Daulton Jefferies left the same game early after experiencing discomfort in his left hip. Jefferies, who recently had his contract selected, will also undergo evaluation to determine the extent of his injury.
Meanwhile, Diamondbacks center fielder Alek Thomas left a game against the Rockies due to ‘left hamstring tightness,’ according to the team’s announcement.
