Harrison Bader Aggravated Foot Injury in Scooter Accident, per Giants
The Giants said Bader will undergo an MRI after a scooter accident further injured the left foot he was already rehabbing.
- On Tuesday, July 28, the San Francisco Giants announced outfielder Harrison Bader further injured his left foot in a scooter accident over the weekend, requiring an MRI to assess severity.
- Bader, who signed a 2-year, $20.5 million contract this offseason, had been sidelined since May 29 with left plantar fasciitis; the scooter incident complicated his recovery evaluation.
- According to the team, the accident occurred "Saturday night/early Sunday morning," marking a recurring issue for the outfielder who was previously suspended from the University of Florida baseball team for a similar incident.
- Manager Tony Vitello stated Bader did not require a hospital stay, though the injury complicates recovery for the veteran who has played only 30 games for San Francisco this season.
- Amid a flurry of injury updates, the Giants also announced utility infielder Casey Schmitt sustained a torn meniscus and right-hander Trevor McDonald requires UCL reconstruction surgery next week.
