Tigers star Cabrera leaves game early with biceps tightness

Detroit Tigers

DETROIT -- Tigers star Miguel Cabrera left Tuesday night's game against the Cleveland Indians with tightness in his left biceps.

Cabrera looked uncomfortable while striking out in his first two at-bats. The team announced the move was for precautionary measures.

Cabrera tore his left biceps on June 12 last season and missed the remainder of the year. He is hitting .280 with nine homers this year, having become a full-time designated hitter because of knee problems.

The Tigers were trailing 4-1 when Cabrera left the game and went on to lose 10-1.
