CHICAGO -- Chicago Cubs outfielder Alfonso Soriano had to leave Monday night's game after suffering a strained left hamstring trying to catch a ball in center. His status was listed as day-to-day.
Soriano dove for the ball in shallow center that was hit by Padres pitcher Clay Hensley. He thought he caught the ball, but he appeared to have trapped it.
Athletic trainer Mark O'Neal then went out to talk to Soriano, who was pulled from the game after hobbling upon getting up. Cubs manager Lou Piniella walked off the field with the slugger, whom he'd had a chat with before the game. Soriano was batting .234 entering the contest, and Piniella felt he'd been pressing and possibly trying to live up to the $136 million contract he signed in the offseason.

Scary moment, hopefully Soriano will be back playing in a few days. Did you know entering today's game Carlos Zambrano has more home runs than our entire starting outfield? Zambrano 1- Outfield 0. That is a complete joke
Anyway I think Soriano will pan out, at least I hope so
