ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Toronto Blue Jays star Jose Reyes has left the season opener after his first at-bat because of a tight left hamstring.
The Toronto shortstop exited Monday in the first inning of the season opener at Tampa Bay.
Reyes led off the game and was robbed of a hit on a diving catch by Rays center fielder Desmond Jennings. He was replaced in the field by Ryan Goins in the bottom of the first.
Reyes sat out several games during the final week of spring training with tightness in the same hamstring. He missed 66 games last season because of an injured left ankle.
