The injury occurred in the third inning when Peña fielded a grounder behind second base, completed the play, and threw out the runner but was visibly examining his finger afterward. He was subsequently removed from the game. The Astros initially questioned initial reports of the fracture while testing continued, but have now confirmed the diagnosis. Peña will undergo reevaluation in two weeks to determine his status.
