Bryce Harper day-to-day with mild hamstring strain

Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper left Thursday night's game against the Tampa Bay Rays in the sixth inning with mild hamstring strain after making a throw to home.

Harper fielded a single to right field by Asdrubal Cabrera and after throwing home immediately fell to the ground, holding his left leg. After meeting with a team trainer and Nationals manager Matt Williams, Harper exited the game and limped off the field under his own power.
