NEW YORK -- New York Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodon exited a 9-7 loss to the Houston Astros in the third inning Sunday with left hamstring tightness.
Rodon threw a 96 mph fastball to Chas McCormick well outside the strike zone and began circling the area behind the pitcher's mound and appeared to stiffen up. An athletic trainer and New York manager Aaron Boone came out to check on Rodon, who threw two warmup pitches. That was followed by a second meeting, where they were joined by plate umpire Angel Hernandez.
