Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zach Davies departed Saturday night’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the fifth inning due to a strained left oblique.

Davies winced after striking out Will Smith for the first out of the inning. He then threw a curveball for a strike to Max Muncy and was visibly affected and dropped into a crouch on the mound. He eventually walked off the field.

Left-hander Kyle Nelson entered and induced Muncy to fly out two pitches later to finish the at-bat.

Davies left with the Diamondbacks leading 6-5. He gave up five runs and five hits over 4 1/3 innings, walking four and striking out three.

Davies, 30, is 0-0 with a 5.79 ERA in two starts this season, both against Los Angeles.
