Huston Street left Friday's game in the eighth inning with an undisclosed injury.
There was no obvious indication that there was anything wrong with him, but the trainer came out for a visit and he was removed from the game. Justin Duchscherer would be the favorite for saves if Street is going to miss some time.

Huston Street suffered a strained right groin in Friday's game and appears to be day-to-day.
"He just got more sore as time went on," trainer Larry Davis said. "He felt it earlier (in the eighth inning) and he kept on pitching." Street will be reevaluated on Saturday. If he's going to need a week or two off, Justin Duchscherer will step into the closer's role.
