8/05/24 Back injury robs Evan Carter of chance to follow up on remarkable debut with Rangers. Evan Carter never really had a chance to follow up on a remarkable debut that helped the Texas Rangers on their way to a World Series title last year. A slow start turned into a nagging lumbar strain in his back, which ultimately led to general manager Chris Young's recent revelation that Carter was unlikely to return in what was supposed to be the outfielder's first full season in the majors. Carter reached base in all 17 of the Rangers' postseason games last year, hitting .300 with a postseason record nine doubles.

5/13/24 Rangers' 'cautious' Carter to see back specialist. Texas Rangers outfielder Evan Carter, who has not started over the past three games because of lingering back soreness, is scheduled to see a specialist Monday. Carter told reporters on Sunday that he felt uncomfortable while making a pinch-hitting appearance earlier in the week and it progressively worsened before he was limited to a pinch-hit appearance on Friday and then held out of each of the past two games. "I just don't want to let it get to that point again," Carter told reporters Sunday, according to The Dallas Morning News. Carter, who burst on the scene with a mixture of clutch hitting, defense and speed during the Rangers' postseason run to the World Series last season, is hitting just .216 with 5 home runs, 15 RBI, 23 runs and 2 steals while striking out 37 times in 125 at-bats this season.

4/25/24 García and Carter hit back-to-back homers and Rangers beat Mariners 5-1. Adolis García and Evan Carter hit Texas' first back-to-back home runs this season and the Rangers beat the Seattle Mariners 5-1 on Wednesday night.

García stood near first base apparently thinking Rodríguez made the catch until he saw the center fielder walk toward the infield, turn and look over the fence.
