TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Tobias Myers left his Cactus League start Saturday with left oblique discomfort.
Myers departed after throwing 1 2/3 innings in a 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.
“Obviously whenever you’re talking about an oblique, whether it’s mild or whatever it is — he had to come out of the game — it’s concerning,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy told reporters.
Myers was cautiously optimistic after the game, but said he would undergo imaging.
“From what I’ve heard so far, it seems mild, is what I’ve heard,” Myers told reporters. “Doesn’t feel too crazy. I just kind of want to be safe.”
Myers, 26, went 9-6 with a 3.00 ERA as a rookie last year while emerging as one of the biggest surprises of the Brewers’ drive to a second straight NL Central championship. Myers closed the season by allowing two hits and no walks over five shutout innings in the deciding game of the NL Wild Card Series, though he left with no decision in a game the Brewers eventually lost 4-2 to the New York Mets.

BOCHUM, Germany (AP) — A dispute over fan banners blocking emergency exits caused kickoff to be delayed by more than half an hour in a German Bundesliga game between Bochum and Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday.
The referee sent both teams back to the locker rooms after attempts to persuade visiting Frankfurt fans to remove the banners from certain areas of the security fence failed. Security staff and representatives of both clubs appeared to be involved in the talks.
If the banners weren't removed, the game would not be able to take place, a stadium announcement warned the Frankfurt fans, “and that isn't in your interests or ours.”
Frankfurt is fourth in the Bundesliga and chasing Champions League qualification. Bochum is 16th in the 18-team league and trying to avoid relegation.
