He grabbed at his hamstring after passing the base, though he stayed in the game for one more inning before leaving. The D-backs called up Jorge Barrosa to take his spot. The 23-year-old from Venezuela has never played in the big leagues. He hit .274 with 20 doubles, 8 triples, 13 home runs, 65 RBI and 15 stolen bases for Triple-A Reno last season.
Thomas — the team’s starting center fielder — had three hits and a homer through the season’s first four games.
