Cubs' Imanaga Leaves Game with Hamstring Strain Against Brewers

News summary

Chicago Cubs pitcher Shota Imanaga exited Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers with a left hamstring strain suffered while covering first base on a double-play attempt in the sixth inning. Prior to the injury, Imanaga had allowed two runs and struck out four over 5.2 innings, but the Brewers capitalized on his departure by scoring four runs in the inning, ultimately winning 4-0. This marks the second consecutive start in which Imanaga has left early due to a leg issue, and his status for upcoming games remains uncertain pending further evaluation. If Imanaga is placed on the injured list, the Cubs may consider right-handers Chris Flexen or Cade Horton as potential replacements in the starting rotation. The injury adds to the Cubs' pitching challenges, as two other starters are already sidelined. The Cubs will provide an update on Imanaga's condition before their next series begins.
