Stephen Drew injures hamstring after spike catches in dirt
WASHINGTON -- The Washington Nationals are running out of shortstops.
Infielder Stephen Drew left Tuesday's game in the fifth inning after suffering a right hamstring injury while running out a ground ball.
"His spike caught when he was leaving the box," said manager Dusty Baker following Washington's 8-3 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. "I didn't really see it, but I can tell by the look and the grimace on his face that he hurt it pretty badly."
The Nationals were already without starting shortstop Trea Turner, who was placed on the 10-day disabled list Monday after straining his hamstring over the weekend in Philadelphia.
