Will Kerry Carpenter bets be refunded after injury during Tigers vs. Royals on 5/9/26?

Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter left Saturday’s game against the Royals with a shoulder injury.

Before exiting, he went 1-for-1 with an infield single. He was replaced by Wenceel Perez.

Some DraftKings Sportsbook users may be wondering whether Carpenter’s departure qualifies for the Early Exit program. Per DraftKings Sportsbook’s eligibility rules, prop bets on Carpenter do qualify for a refund via Early Exit because he left before recording a second plate appearance.

All pre-match and full-game player prop bets on Carpenter’s lines will be refunded in the form of cash credits. As for parlays, affected legs on the slugger’s props will be voided, but the remainder of the parlay will remain live with recalculated odds.

Stay tuned to DraftKings Network for live updates on Carpenter’s status and other key injuries.
