Chicago Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner departed Friday's home game against the Arizona Diamondbacks with tightness along the left side of his neck.
Hoerner led off the bottom of the first inning with a double but did not take his at-bat in the second inning. Matt Shaw replaced Hoerner as a pinch hitter and grounded out before also taking over at second base.
Hoerner, 28, is batting .297 with four home runs and 26 RBIs in 32 games this season. Over eight major league seasons, all with the Cubs, he is a career .283 hitter with 40 home runs and 304 RBIs in 736 games.
Shaw, 24, entered Friday's game batting .301 with three home runs and 10 RBIs in 28 games.
