Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said Rooker was removed from Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Cubs after feeling tightness in his hamstring, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Though Kotsay described Rooker's removal as precautionary, the 28-year-old is still being viewed as day-to-day and seems likely to sit out Wednesday's series finale versus Chicago. Rooker walked in his lone plate appearance before departing Tuesday, bringing his slash line to .324/.395/.676 for the season.
