NEW YORK — Breakout rookie Steven Kwan was pulled from the Cleveland Guardians’ game with right hamstring tightness.

Kwan flied out in the top of the third inning and was replaced by Ernie Clement in left field for the bottom of the inning.

The 24-year-old Kwan crashed into the outfield wall chasing a ball Saturday and was shaken up, but he remained in the game.

Manager Terry Francona said before Sunday’s game that Kwan was “a little beat up” but well enough to play.

Kwan is batting .341 with a .456 on-base percentage in the first 14 games of his career.
