Troy Tulowitzki left last night’s game against the Astros after suffering a strained left groin in the sixth inning. He apparently did it while running to first on a ground ball. The lesson here, kids: never run out ground balls. It’s totally bad for you.
Tulo seemed destined for the 15-day disabled list. Not anything the Rockies need after digging themselves such a big hole in the early going.
