MIAMI (AP) — Philadelphia Phillies star shortstop Trea Turner left Sunday’s 5-4 loss to the Miami Marlins in the seventh inning because of a right hamstring strain.

Turner hit a solo homer in the sixth to narrow Philadelphia’s deficit to 4-2. When his turn came again in the seventh, Turner legged out a grounder and reached on a throwing error by Miami shortstop Otto López.

Edmundo Sosa replaced Turner as the baserunner and at shortstop.

The 32-year-old Turner leads the National League in batting average at .305 and also has a league-leading 179 hits this season.
