San Francisco Giants starter Blake Snell exits with injury



San Francisco Giants starter Blake Snell left Sunday’s game against the New York Yankees with tightness in his left groin in the fifth inning.

Snell was in the middle of an at-bat before walking off with Giants trainer Dave Groeschner and heading directly into the clubhouse. The veteran’s last pitch came in at 97 mph before he pushed off the mound in discomfort.

Snell, 31, in his first season with the Giants after signing in the offseason, hasn’t lasted through five full innings yet in 2024 and is still searching for his first victory. He entered Sunday’s start at 0-3 with a 10.42 ERA and 24 strikeouts.

The Yankees won the first two games of the series.
