Mejia exits with apparent injury in 4th inning

MINNEAPOLIS -- Twins rookie left-hander Adalberto Mejia left Tuesday's start against the Brewers in the fourth inning with an apparent injury, and was replaced by reliever Tyler Duffey.

Mejia was facing Keon Broxton with a 2-1 count when he summoned Twins manager Paul Molitor and trainer Tony Leo to the mound. After a brief discussion, Mejia exited the field. Mejia's velocity dipped in the fourth, as his fastball ranged from 89-93 mph after sitting between 94-95 mph in previous innings.
