Twins' Eduardo Escobar: Suffers hamstring strain

Escobar suffered a hamstring strain in Saturday's game against Texas.

Escobar was dealt the injury when he slid at home plate early in the game, but he managed to return to the field for the bottom of the inning. In his next at-bat, it was apparent the injury was a bit more serious as he limped to first base during a flyout, prompting his exit from the game. Depending on the severity of the hamstring strain -- details of which will likely be released Saturday night or Sunday -- the 27-year-old could be sidelined for a couple days or could be headed for a DL stint.
