The Cardinals' Matt Adams walks off the field after being checked on by Cardinals trainer Chris Conroy, left, and manager Mike Matheny after an injury during the fifth inning against the Diamondbacks.

The St. Louis Cardinals anticipate first baseman Matt Adams will be placed on the 15-day disabled list after straining his right quadriceps while running out a double in the fifth inning Tuesday night.

Manager Mike Matheny said there was a "high level of concern" about Adams. Mark Reynolds, who pinch ran, will likely be the fill-in starter at first base for now.
