On Wednesday afternoon, Cleveland Indians catcher Carlos Santana left the team's 5-4 loss to the New York Yankees in the ninth inning due to what Indians manager Manny Acta described as mild-back tightness. As of this time, Santana is set to be evaluated when the Indians arrive in Baltimore in anticipation of the team's next series against the Orioles.
Acta: Santana pulled in 9th due to mid-back tightness. He'll be re-evaluated in Baltimore.

Santana finished the game without a hit in three at-bats but did score a run in the second inning after reaching base on a throwing error by Alex Rodriquez.
