Jeffrey Springs, left-hander for the Oakland Athletics, left Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Twins after experiencing right hip discomfort. The injury occurred during the start, prompting his removal from the mound. The exact nature of the injury has not been disclosed, but it is understood to be a minor issue.

Springs, 29, had been pitching in the early innings before the discomfort forced him out of the game. The Athletics did not immediately comment on the injury’s severity or expected return timeline. The Twins, meanwhile, managed to secure the win with the pitching change.

This is not the first time Springs has dealt with injury concerns. Earlier in the season, he missed time due to a shoulder issue. The team is now monitoring his condition and may provide further updates in the coming days. (winnipegfreepress.com)
