GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) — Asdrubal Cabrera left the Cleveland Indians’ game with an apparent right leg injury.
Cleveland’s starting shortstop singled with one out in the first inning. After Cabrera reached first base, team trainer Lonnie Soloff and manager Manny Acta went out to talk to him. Cabrera jogged down the right-field line a couple times and stayed in the game.
After moving up on a walk, Cabrera took third base on a wild pitch, then turned toward the dugout and was replaced by pinch runner Luis Valbuena.
Cabrera missed six weeks of the 2010 season with a broken left wrist. He has hit .424 in 12 games this spring.
Cleveland will be without starting third baseman Jason Donald on opening day. He is recovering from a cracked bone in a finger on his left hand.
