Evan Carter, the Rangers outfielder, was hit on the left hand by a pitch from Kyle Harrison during a spring training game, prompting immediate concern as he left the field after a consultation with the team's trainer, Matt Lucero, and manager Bochy. Following the incident, Carter underwent X-rays on his left forearm, which fortunately showed no fracture. He has been listed as day-to-day. Despite the scare, Carter expressed he was "just pissed" when he got hit yesterday, indicating it was not his first experience with being hit by a pitch. He's now using a moldable shield on his forearm as a precautionary measure, which he humorously referred to as a new fashion accessory.

Evan Carter said he was "just pissed" when he got hit yesterday, but not concerned. Wasn't mad at anybody in particular, not the pitcher, just been there, done that before with HBP. He's wearing a moldable shield on forearm today & it will become a new fashion accessory for him
