MIAMI (AP) — Tampa Bay Rays All-Star left-hander Shane McClanahan was a late scratch in his scheduled start against the Miami Marlins Tuesday because of left shoulder impingement.

The 25-year-old McClanahan has made 24 starts and emerged as one of the top pitchers in the major leagues this season. McClanahan (11-5) is second in the AL in wins and ERA at 2.10. He will undergo further testing on Wednesday.

The Rays (70-58) began Tuesday second in the AL East, seven games behind division leader New York Yankees and leading the AL Wild Card race.

Right-hander Shawn Armstrong replaced McClanahan against Miami.
