BOSTON (AP) Yankees second baseman Starlin Castro left Saturday's game against the Red Sox in the fifth inning after straining his right hamstring while rounding first base on a double.

Castro went into second and manager Joe Girardi and a trainer came out. They chatted briefly, and Castro was lifted replaced by pinch runner Ronald Torreyes, who went to second base in the bottom of the inning.
