HOUSTON (AP) — Houston Astros starter Cristian Javier left Sunday’s 12-0 loss to the Baltimore Orioles after three innings because of an illness.
Javier allowed three hits and a run with two strikeouts before being replaced by Shawn Dubin for the fourth inning.
“He just did not feel well when he came off the mound in the third inning,” manager Joe Espada said.
Espada didn’t think his illness affected his performance Sunday.
“No, he just came off the third inning and he said he wasn’t feeling well,” Espada said. “So he looked pretty good those first three innings.”
Espada did not provide any details on Javier’s illness. He wasn’t made available to reporters after the game and a team spokesman said he was visiting a doctor.
It was the second start of the season for Javier, who missed 14 months after undergoing Tommy John surgery. He yielded three hits and two runs with five strikeouts in five innings of a win over Boston in his debut Monday night.
