Brice Matthews Out With Knee Injury | Houston Astros News

Houston Astros’ rising star Brice Matthews, just 24 and a native of Texas, suffered a painful knee injury while making a diving play against the Rangers — the ball slipped away, turning into a triple. He stayed in the game briefly but was soon replaced by pinch hitter Taylor Trammell, signaling the injury’s severity. Matthews, who’s hitting .197 in 81 games this season, is a key part of the Astros’ outfield and a hometown hero from Atascocita High. The team hasn’t yet disclosed the full extent of his injury, but fans are already bracing for how the lineup will shift without him.
