Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa was placed on the seven-day concussion injured list Friday, a day after he collided with center fielder Byron Buxton in pursuit of a shallow fly ball.Buxton had entered concussion protocol after Minnesota's 4-0 victory at Baltimore on Thursday and also was held out of the Twins' lineup Friday for the opener of a three-game series at Milwaukee.

The collision happened in the third inning and was with Twins center fielder Byron Buxton. Correa exited the game following the play. Correa is hitting .236/.274/.331 with two home runs and 13 RBIs in 41 games thus far in 2024. He has played the entirety of the season at shortstop and his absence should create a hole in the Twins' infield.

Correa appeared to take the brunt of the collision on Thursday when Buxton's forehead and chin smacked into the back of his head and left shoulder, respectively. He appeared woozy but exited the field under his own power following a prolonged visit by the athletic training staff.
