MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton left Thursday's game against the Oakland Athletics after hitting the wall awkwardly while making the final out of the top of the fifth inning.
Buxton caught the ball just as his back hit the wall in front of the bullpens in left-center field. The collision knocked off the glasses and hat for Buxton, who bent over for a few moments before running off the field under his own power.
