Texas Rangers starter Max Scherzer left Friday night\'s 5-1 loss to the American League Central-leading Minnesota Twins due to tightness in his forearm.
Scherzer, in his sixth start for the Rangers since being acquired in a trade from the New York Mets, struck out seven and allowed only one hit in six innings before his departure following 88 pitches with a 1-0 lead.
Scherzer insisted afterward that he is OK and just didn\'t want the forearm tightness to become an extended problem.
