What happened: A game advisory noted an injury delay involving Richie Palacios in the bottom of the fourth with the score 2-0. The stoppage came before the inning was complete.

Why it matters: Palacios has been part of multiple in-game injury delays this season, including an eighth-inning stoppage on July 25. Another midgame check this late in the regular season matters because even a short interruption can turn into a day-to-day availability issue once a postgame update arrives.

By the numbers: Wire Report prior coverage shows three earlier 2026 injury-delay items involving Palacios: May 30, June 6 and July 25. This is the fourth Palacios injury-delay item on the calendar this season.

What to watch: Watch for whether Palacios returned after the delay or was removed from the game. The next formal status update will shape his immediate availability.
