Corbin Carroll Exits Game With Back Tightness; Expected Back Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks star outfielder Corbin Carroll was removed from Sunday's game in the fifth inning due to tightness in his lower back. Despite the exit, manager Torey Lovullo assured reporters that Carroll is "fine" and is expected to start in right field for Tuesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Lovullo indicated that Carroll's removal was part of a strategy to manage player workload during a blowout loss. Carroll has been experiencing some ongoing low back issues, which Lovullo described as a day-to-day concern that the player will continue to monitor. Carroll went hitless in his two at-bats on Sunday and was seen stretching and consulting with a trainer in the dugout. He was replaced by Jorge Barrosa, who later hit a two-run homer. As of Sunday, Carroll's performance this season has been strong, with a .300/.390/.600 slash line including six doubles, three triples, and three home runs.
