Astros' Carlos Lee leaves game with hand injury

Houston slugger Carlos Lee left the Astros' game at Cincinnati in the third inning Saturday night with a broken left pinky after getting hit by a pitch.

The left fielder, who reached the 100-RBI level for the fourth consecutive season on Friday night and leads the NL in that category, was hit by a pitch from Bronson Arroyo with Lance Berkman on first base, two outs and Houston leading 1-0. What looked like blood was seen on Lee's left pinkie finger when his batting glove was pulled off.

Lee will be reevaluated on Monday.
