Kerry Carpenter Injury: Exits Sunday's game with injury

Carpenter was removed in the fifth inning of Sunday's game against the Twins due to a right hamstring injury, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. He went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an RBI triple prior to exiting the game.

Carpenter appeared to tweak his hamstring while running out of the batter's box on his fifth-inning triple, resulting in the Tigers lifting him from the contest for a pinch runner. The Tigers should have an update on Carpenter's injury status during or shortly after Sunday's game once he undergoes further testing.
