NEW YORK (AP) - Yankees starter Chien-Ming Wang left Saturday's
game against the Toronto Blue Jays with a strained right shoulder.

Wang surrendered a two-run homer to Adam Lind with one out in
the sixth and threw a pitch to Scott Rolen before manager Joe
Girardi and trainer Gene Monahan came out of the dugout. Girardi
opted to replace Wang with David Robertson.

The Yankees said Wang would get an MRI on Saturday. Wang already has spent time on the disabled list this season with weakness in the adductor muscles in his hips.
