Astros’ Jose Altuve leaves game with hamstring tightness

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve left for a pinch hitter in the third inning against the visiting Cincinnati Reds with right hamstring tightness, the team announced during the game.

Altuve, a .305 hitter over his 13-year career, stayed at .259 for the season after drawing a walk in the first inning and eventually scoring from second on a single by Yainer Diaz.

The 35-year-old stayed in the game through the top of the third, but left for pinch hitter Brendan Rogers, who stayed in the game at second base.

Altuve, the American League MVP in 2017 and a nine-time All-Star, has four homers and 14 RBIs this season.
