    He immediately left the game and was replaced by Oswaldo Cabrera. New York went on to take a 3-0 lead.

    Torres also left a June 20 game against Baltimore because of right groin tightness. The Yankees said he was examined at the stadium and there were no plans for imaging at this time.

    Torres is hitting .223 with eight homers and 33 RBI, but batted .308 (8 for 26) in his last seven games.

    New York already was missing first baseman Anthony Rizzo, sidelined since June 16 by a broken forearm, and designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton, out since June 22 because of a strained hamstring.
