Bastardo leaves with left shoulder strain

Phils starting pitcher Antonio Bastardo was the latest pitcher to catch the injury bug.

In the middle of the fourth inning, pitching coach Rich Dubee and team athletic trainer Scott Sheridan visited the mound. Shortly afterward, they removed Bastardo from the game with a left shoulder strain.

Bastardo, who was given a 4-0 lead before he took the mound, allowed six runs in his first two innings of work. He was called up earlier this month to take the rotation spot from Brett Myers, who had hip surgery.
