What happened: Nico Hoerner was involved in an injury delay in the top of the sixth inning, with play paused while he was tended to. The game was tied to the situation at 2-7 at the time of the stoppage.

Why it matters: Hoerner is an everyday infielder whose availability shapes the lineup, so any in-game delay involving him is worth tracking. This is the same Nico Hoerner whose defense was featured earlier this season, underscoring how central his glove is to the infield.

What to watch: Watch for word on whether Hoerner stays in the game or is removed, and any update on the nature of the issue.
