Astros' Luis Valbuena: Exits Tuesday's contest

Valbuena (leg) left Tuesday's game in the second inning, holding his right leg after falling down on the way to first base, Angel Verdejo Jr. of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Valbuena walked off the field under his own power and exited to the clubhouse after the injury. Due to the injury, the Astros moved Marwin Gonzalez to third base and Jason Castro came into the game at first. It appeared as though Valbuena tweaked something in his leg and should be considered day-to-day until the team releases more information.
