Gonzalez leaves the game with hamstring

After sparking a four-run go-ahead rally, left fielder Carlos Gonzalez left Tuesday's series opener against the Padres due to his left hamstring. Gonzalez opened the first inning with a triple into the right-center alley, and returned to the field in the top of the second, fielding one ball from center fielder Tony Gwynn Jr.

Gonzalez entered the game hitting .277 with 12 home runs and 16 steals. The temperature at that time was 48 degrees, and rain began falling in the second inning, which possibly leads to Gonzalez's hamstring.
