NEW YORK (AP) — Clay Holmes left his start for the New York Mets against the Athletics with one out in the sixth inning on Friday night because of left hamstring tightness.

Holmes allowed one run and five hits with three strikeouts and three walks. The 33-year-old right-hander entered with a 2-0 record and has a 1.50 ERA in three starts.
