What happened to Kyle Harrison? Live injury updates for Pirates vs. Brewers on 8/5/26

Updated:

By: Stan Son

UPDATE: Harrison was cramping in both calves.


Prior to the start of the sixth inning in Wednesday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Kyle Harrison was replaced by Chad Patrick. Harrison walked off the field with a trainer after warming up. There’s been no reason given as to why Harrison was removed from the game.

Prior to exiting, Harrison pitched five innings, struck out 10, walked one and did not allow an earned run on one hit. He threw 69 pitches, 50 for strikes. It was Harrison’s first start since July 8 due to injury, so he was on a pitch count.

Since Harrison faced more than five batters, he will not be eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.

Stay tuned to DK Network for live updates on Harrison’s injury status.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
