The Chicago White Sox’s dramatic win Friday night over the Detroit Tigers didn’t come without a cost. Munetaka Murakami left the game with right hamstring tightness.
Manager Will Venable said postgame that while the team was still awaiting testing results, the rookie slugger could miss a couple of weeks.
Murakami tweaked his hamstring in the third inning. He hustled to beat out a potential double-play ball and favored his leg after getting through the bag. Venable said postgame they believe there’s a strain and will know more about the severity after tomorrow’s imaging.
Miguel Vargas kicked over to first base to finish the game. Colson Montgomery slid from shortstop to third base, while Luisangel Acuña handled short.
