Pujols left yesterday’s game with a hamstring issue. While he was running to first base after a bloop single he started to hold his hamstring and then proceeded to exit the game.
Angels coach Mike Scioscia spoke to Gonzalez about the injury.
Mike Scioscia doesn’t anticipate Albert Pujols going on the DL, but said of hamstring: “there’s some soreness in there, definitely.”

We’ll have to monitor the situation as the days go as the hamstring is a tricky injury. The Angels will go with a different lineup tonight due to the injury. Gonzalez reported the lineup.
Interesting Pujols-less Angels lineup: Aybar SS, Giavotella 2B, Trout CF, Calhoun RF, Freese DH, Cron 1B, Joyce LF, Butera C, Featherston 3B
