Chicago Cubs ace left-hander Justin Steele sustained a left hamstring injury Thursday while fielding a bunt in the fifth inning of a 4-3, 10-inning loss in the season opener against the Texas Rangers in Arlington, Texas.
Steele immediately clutched at the back of his left leg after backhanding the ball to first baseman Michael Busch on a bunt by Leody Taveras.
