Joc Pederson, the Texas Rangers designated hitter, exited Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox due to a right hand injury after being hit by a pitch from Bryse Wilson. Despite the injury, Pederson initially remained in the game, even scoring a run. Ultimately, he was replaced by Kyle Higashioka after being evaluated further. This incident adds to the Rangers' unfortunate history with injuries from hit batters, as third baseman Josh Jung previously suffered a wrist fracture in a similar situation. Pederson's performance this season has been subpar, with a .131 batting average in 46 games.
