Sep 9, 2025; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; Houston Astros starting pitcher Luis Garcia (77) throws a pitch against the Toronto Blue Jays during the first inning at Rogers Centre. Mandatory Credit: Nick Turchiaro-Imagn Images Houston Astros right-handed pitcher Luis Garcia left with an injury with two outs and one runner on base in the second inning of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Immediately upon throwing a pitch to Ernie Clement, Garcia motioned toward his arm while looking at the Houston dugout and immediately left the game after a visit from the Astros' training staff. According to reporters, his velocity was down throughout his start on Tuesday before leaving the game.
Garcia, 28, was making his second start since undergoing Tommy John surgery, having last pitched in the major leagues in May 2023 before his return Sept. 1. He has a 29-19 record and a 3.60 ERA over 359 2/3 innings across five seasons with Houston.
