Fantasy Impact:

Buxton initially stayed in the game, stealing second base and coming around to score. However, he was later replaced by Brooks Lee ahead of his second at-bat. The Twins are expected to provide an update on his injury soon. If Buxton misses time, Harrison Bader and Trevor Larnach should see increased playing time in the outfield.
