Starling Marte leaves game with discomfort in left side
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte left Sunday's game against the Cleveland Indians after showing obvious discomfort on a swing during his fourth inning at-bat.
Marte grabbed his side after swinging for his second strike of the at-bat, and left the game after consulting with manager Clint Hurdle. The Pirates announced Marte's exit was due to discomfort in his left side, and he'll be re-evaluated Monday.
Gregory Polanco replaced Marte, who struck out in his only other at-bat prior to leaving the contest.
