“After everything she went through, the battle she went through and now she’s here with us - we want to celebrate life and celebrate her life. “It’s an important day for me, but I wanted to make it extra special for her,” Correa said. Upon learning the shooting suspect had lived close to her childhood home, she did not want to return home. The Correa Family Foundation, in conjunction with other donors - including some current Astro players - secured funding for Zamora and her family to build a new house in an area where she feels comfortable.Ĭorrea met with Zamora and her family on the field before the game. Zamora was severely wounded in the shooting, requiring more than 20 surgeries in the aftermath and a hospital stay of more than two months. Zamora is a survivor of the May school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, that took the life of 19 students and two teachers. While Correa’s return to Houston was celebratory in many ways, he also used the opportunity to honor Mayah Zamora as the Correa Family Foundation’s August Hero of the Month. But now it’s time for some of us to step up and help the team win some games.” “Whenever the time is right and he can come help us again, that’ll be great. “You can’t rush those types of injuries, especially if they’ve been lingering for a while,” shortstop Carlos Correa said. While they have plenty of options to go out into center - Gilberto Celestino, Nick Gordon, Jake Cave - none match the production both offensively and defensively that the all-star brings. Now, the Twins will have to navigate without their center fielder for an undetermined period of time. “His attachment to his teammates and his attachment to this team and playing and being out there with everyone means a lot to him, and it’s not easy to not be here right now, even for a couple days,” Baldelli said. While there was no decision to be made as to what the correct move was, he called it a “difficult and emotional” conversation. Before landing on the injured list, Buxton was on pace to play 124 games, which would only be behind the 140 games he played in 2017.īaldelli said he spoke with Buxton, head athletic trainer Michael Salazar and a team doctor after Buxton returned from having imaging done late Monday night. Buxton has played in 92 games, tied for the second most in his career. To this point, though the center fielder has been managing and playing through pain, that plan has worked.
The Twins have been carefully structuring his playing time so that they could keep him on the field. But luckily, it doesn’t sound like we are going to have that discussion about him missing a long period of time.” We’ve had many, many conversations about that this year. He never wants to be off the field, ever. “We’re not talking about that, which is a good thing. “I think we were able to avoid major injury or something where we are talking about a month or the rest of the season,” Baldelli said. This, manager Rocco Baldelli, said is also something Buxton has been dealing with over the course of the season, and there are times when the hip might have even been bothering him more than the knee.īuxton was removed early from Monday night’s game against the Texas Rangers with right hip tightness and immediately was sent for magnetic resonance imaging, after which the Twins decided to place Buxton on the injured list with a low-grade right hip strain.īuxton missed six weeks after straining the same hip last year, though his timeline with this injury appears as if it will be shorter than that.
While Buxton has been dealing with persistent knee pain, which the Twins have called a severe chronic case of tendonitis, it was actually a hip injury that landed Buxton on the IL.

HOUSTON - After a season full of playing through aches and pains, often requiring hours of treatment just to get out on the field, the Twins placed Byron Buxton on the injured list for the first time this year on Tuesday.
