Detroit Tigers third baseman Miguel Cabrera exited his second consecutive game Friday against the Cleveland Indians due to what the team is calling "irritation of the abdominal area."

He is listed as day-to-day.

Cabrera also left Thursday's series finale against the Oakland Athletics. Cabrera came up lame when he was trying to leg out a double with two outs in the bottom of the fifth inning. He limped off the field.

The AL MVP frontrunner leads the majors with a .359 average and 130 RBI and his 43 home runs are four behind Baltimore's Chris Davis.
