HOUSTON — Yankees<\/a> slugger Giancarlo Stanton<\/a> left New York’s 12-4 win<\/a> over the Houston Astros<\/a>on Friday in the sixth inning because of tightness in his right lower leg.<\/p>\n

Stanton hit an RBI single in the sixth but left three batters left when he was unable to score from second on a single by J.C. Escarra<\/a> to the left field wall. Stanton rounded third on the hit but held up.<\/p>\n

After talking to the trainer, Stanton exited and was replaced by Randal Grichuk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Stanton is hitting .256 this season with three home runs and 14 RBIs in 24 games.<\/p>\n
