Luke Jackson Leaves After Being Hit In Arm By Comebacker
Texas Rangers right-handed reliever Luke Jackson (arm) was hit by a comebacker on his right arm on Monday in his outing against the visiting Colorado Rockies at Globe Life Field and immediately exited the game with trainer Matt Lucero, according to the Dallas Morning News' Shawn McFarland. The 33-year-old veteran was being deployed in save situation in a 2-1 game in the top of the ninth inning but was hit by a liner off the bat of Ryan McMahon. Jacob Webb replaced Jackson and locked down the 2-1 win for his first save of 2025. Jackson gave up a hit and didn't record an out before leaving. The Rangers will most likely put him through tests to determine the severity of his arm injury. If it's serious and he's forced to miss extended time, the Rangers could mix and match in the ninth inning with names like Webb, Chris Martin or Robert Garcia. UPDATE: X-rays came back negative on Jackson's arm. Manager Bruce Bochy said that Jackson's arm swelled up quickly. He could still need a stint on the injured list, but the team will know more on Tuesday. Stay tuned.
