Indians starter Talbot leaves with injury
CLEVELAND (AP) -Mitch Talbot of the Cleveland Indians left his start in the top of the third inning against the New York Yankees with an undisclosed injury.
The right-hander had a 2-0 count on Derek Jeter after Colin Curtis led off the inning with a sharp single through the middle. Talbot walked the bases loaded in the second before grabbing a one-hopper off the bat of Francisco Cervelli and turning it into a second-to-first double play.
Even though Talbot had not allowed a hit over two innings and led 1-0, Rafael Perez warmed up for Cleveland during the bottom of the second and manager Manny Acta came out to talk with plate umpire Jerry Meals before Talbot took the mound to start the third.
Acta and trainer Lonnie Soloff went to the mound to check on Talbot, who then walked off.
