Minnesota Twins third baseman Royce Lewis has left their Grapefruit League game against Boston with a leg injury.

Minnesota Twins third baseman Royce Lewis will miss Opening Day with a moderate left hamstring strain, the team announced Monday without providing a timetable for his return, but a stint on the injured list is probable due to the typical recovery period.

Manager Rocco Baldelli cautioned not to read too much into one lineup with eight Grapefruit League games left, but Lee is one of the candidates for the starting third base job. Jo
