Munetaka Murakami Expected to Miss a Couple Weeks After Leaving Friday's Game Early
Chicago White Sox slugger Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is expected to miss approximately two weeks after exiting Friday's game against the Detroit Tigers with a hamstring injury. Initial evaluations indicated a hamstring strain, although Murakami is scheduled to undergo additional testing on Saturday. The 26-year-old has been one of baseball's biggest stories in his first MLB season after arriving from Japan's NPB. He is tied for the American League lead with 20 home runs and owns a .240/.378/.560 slash line through 57 games. While any absence from a player with Murakami's power production will be difficult for Chicago to absorb, the early prognosis suggests the White Sox avoided a more serious injury.
