Royce Lewis, Minnesota Twins infielder, hit a home run in his first at-bat of the season but left the game due to a quad injury while rounding the bases. The injury was later confirmed as a severe quad strain, requiring at least a month of recovery. As a result, the Twins placed Lewis on the injured list and promoted Austin Martin.
