Refsnyder attended Laguna Hills High School in Laguna Hills, California, and he played baseball, basketball, and American football.[2][6] He played as a wide receiver and outside linebacker for the football team in his junior year, and as the quarterback in his senior year.[2][7] In his senior season, he was named his division's Offensive Player of the Year for the football team[8] and co-most valuable player of the Pacific Coast League for the baseball team.[9] Colleges in the Pacific-10 Conference recruited Refsnyder to play quarterback for their football teams.[6]

Enrolling at the University of Arizona, Refsnyder played college baseball for the Arizona Wildcats baseball team in the Pacific-10 Conference. In his freshman year, in the 2010 season, Refsnyder batted .344 with two home runs in 57 games.[10] He was an All-Pacific-10 Honorable Mention.[11] As a sophomore, Refsnyder played in all 60 Wildcats games and batted .320 with six home runs. Refsnyder was a first team selection for the All-Pacific 10 Conference teams.[10] After his sophomore season, Refsnyder played collegiate summer baseball for the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League.[12][13]

The Yankees gave Refsnyder an opportunity to compete for a spot with the major league team in 2015,[2] but assigned him to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start the season so that he could continue to work on his defense.[32] The Yankees promoted Refsnyder to the major league club on July 11.[33] With his callup, Refsnyder became the fourth position player in MLB history to be born in South Korea, following Hee-seop Choi, Shin-Soo Choo, and Jung-ho Kang.[34] He made his major league debut that day and recorded his first two major league hits--including a two-run home run--on July 12.[35] After Refsnyder played four games, the Yankees optioned him to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.[36] The Yankees promoted Refsnyder to the majors once again on September 1, 2015, as part of their September call-ups.[37] Refsnyder finished the regular season with a .302 average and two home runs in the major league, where he played second base.

On May 15, the Twins selected Refsnyder to the active roster.[68] Despite the fact that he had never before played center field in the major leagues,[69] Refsnyder served as the backup center fielder to Max Kepler.

When Kepler went on the injured list, on May 30, Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said that he had no choice but to "ride Refsnyder" in center field.[70] Refsnyder suffered a concussion on June 2[71] and a strained left hamstring on June 8.[72] Refsnyder finished the 2021 season with a .245 batting average, two home runs, 12 RBIs, and one stolen base in 51 major league games.

During spring training in 2024, Refsnyder fractured a toe on his left foot, delaying his availability for the regular season.[85] For the season, he appeared in 93 games and batted .283 with 11 home runs and 40 runs batted in.[86] After the season, the team exercised its $2.1 million club option to bring Refsnyder back for the 2025 season.[87]
