Mariners SS Wilson injures right hamstring

Mar 6, 2010 - 12:13 AM PEORIA, Ariz.(AP) -- Seattle shortstop Jack Wilson injured his right hamstring Friday and left the game after the third inning of the Mariners' 9-3 loss to San Diego.

It was initially believed that Wilson injured the leg while scoring from first base on a triple by Ichiro Suzuki in the third inning. However, Mariners manager Don Wakamatsu said, "he did not do it on the run. He actually did it (earlier) on a play at short where he planted and threw it.

"He said he felt OK on the run but it was tight."

Wilson was expected to be re-evaluated Saturday.

It was the second straight game in which a Mariners player left with an injury. Closer David Aardsma strained his groin Thursday on his final pitch in the third inning against San Diego.
