Joe Powell injury update: Mississippi State baseball starting catcher exits game at Missouri
This story was updated to add new information.
Mississippi State baseball starting catcher Joe Powell exited the May 16 game at Missouri with an injury.
The injury occurred in the seventh inning at Taylor Stadium when Powell, a graduate senior, fielded a short ground ball, turned to first and threw for the out. He fell to the ground, and the training staff evaluated him, but Powell was able to walk off the field on his own power.
Ross Highfill replaced Powell in the field.
Three pitches later, the Bulldogs (33-20, 14-15 SEC) got the final out in a 13-3 run-rule win versus the Tigers (16-37, 3-26).
Joe Powell injury update
Interim coach Justin Parker gave a brief update on Powell’s status during a radio interview after the game ended.
“I’m not sure yet,” he said. “I think kind of back-related. Maybe his back tightened up a little bit. We’re just going to have to take a look at it tonight and see what it looks like for tomorrow.”
Who is Mississippi State’s backup catcher?
Powell wasn’t the starting catcher to begin the season, but took the job from Highfill because of his bat and defense. He has started eight consecutive games and 12 of the past 14 at catcher. If Powell can’t play, Highfill likely will take his place in the starting lineup, especially with Jackson Owen injured.
It’s the third injury of the series for Mississippi State. In Game 1 on May 15, starting left fielder Gehrig Frei left the game after an awkward landing while sliding into third base. Reserve outfielder Aaron Downs also exited that game after getting hit in the face with a pitch.
Frei and Downs didn’t play on May 16, but both were listed as game-time decisions, perhaps indicating that their injuries won’t be long-term.
Joe Powell stats
Powell has started 28 games this season and bats .284 with seven home runs, 33 RBIs and 17 runs.
