Astros closer Roberto Osuna exits game with arm discomfort, will undergo MRI

The Houston Astros bullpen might have lost another big name on Saturday, as closer Roberto Osuna exited in the ninth inning with an apparent injury.

After allowing a one-out single to Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo with a 4-3 lead, Osuna signaled for a mound visit and was soon out of the game. Cy Sneed entered the game for Osuna and promptly allowed a game-tying RBI double to Jason Castro. The Astros went on to lose 5-4 in the 10th inning.

Astros manager Dusty Baker told reporters after the game that Osuna felt discomfort in his arm and is headed back to Houston for an MRI.
