Twins All-Star Byron Buxton left Wednesday's game against the Cubs with a left hand contusion after being hit by a pitch.

Less than a week before his second MLB All-Star Game appearance, Twins center fielder Byron Buxton left Wednesday’s game against the Cubs with a left hand contusion. Buxton led off with a hit-by-pitch that was originally ruled a foul ball but overturned after a Minnesota challenge.

The last thing the Minnesota Twins need right now is an injury to Byron Buxton, but there is concern after the All-Star center fielder exited Wednesday's game after being hit by a pitch on the hand.
