Kerry Carpenter Injury: Scratched from Wednesday's lineup

Carpenter was scratched from the Tigers' lineup against the White Sox on Wednesday due to right hamstring tightness.

It's unclear when Carpenter tweaked his hamstring, but it's severe enough for the 27-year-old to be taken out of the starting lineup Wednesday. The outfielder will be available to pinch hit, per Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. Wenceel Perez will start in right field and bat fifth.
