Minnesota Twins third baseman Kyle Farmer needs oral surgery after being hit by a pitch from Lucas Giolito in the face Wednesday, manager Rocco Baldelli said.
Still, center fielder Byron Buxton, who also had an injury scare after a collision on the base paths, said the vibe on the field wasn’t pleasant after Farmer left the game.
Kyle Farmer of the Minnesota Twins throws to first base to get out Andrew Vaughn of the Chicago White Sox in the eighth inning of a game at Target Field April 10, 2023, in Minneapolis. "You kind of didn’t hear a pin drop for three innings. It was kind of weird in the dugout," Buxton said."Everybody was thinking more about him than the game, especially when something horrific happens like that. If you’ve got any type of heart, you care about that person before you do this game. It was tough to finish."Giolito added,"It’s something that obviously I feel very, very bad about. Never want to hit anyone up there.
Farmer is in his first season with the Twins after playing for the Cincinnati Reds the past four years. In 11 games, he is hitting .226 with one double, one home run, five RBIs and six runs.
