Chas McCormick, outfielder for the Houston Astros, sustained a small fracture in his right hand after colliding with the outfield wall during a game against the Oakland Athletics. McCormick expressed disappointment over his injury, especially as the team heads into a crucial playoff stretch, and noted that he will need to spend a minimum of 10 days on the injured list. While he described the injury as 'not serious', he acknowledged the difficulty in picking up a bat and hinted at the uncertainty of his return before the end of the regular season. This injury follows a challenging season for McCormick, who has struggled at the plate with a batting average of .211. His absence from the lineup will force the Astros to rely on other outfield options as they look to stabilize their performance in the final games of the season.
