"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Phillies catcher Carlos Ruiz has spent time on the disabled list during each of the last four seasons. (Rich Schultz/Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Philadelphia Phillies catcher Carlos Ruiz left Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Reds in the second inning with a strained right hamstring, the team announced.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ruiz appeared hobbled after taking off from first base on an attempted hit-and-run play, then came up limping while heading into third after a single by Freddy Galvis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He was replaced by Erik Kratz, who filled in for Ruiz during his 25-game suspension to begin the season for a positive 2012 amphetamines test.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Phillies could call veteran Humberto Quintero, who served as Kratz's backup while Ruiz sat out, up from Triple-A if Ruiz is placed on the disabled list -- which is likely the case for strained hamstrings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 34-year-old Ruiz, a free agent after this season, snapped a nine-game hitting streak that had raised his batting average to .240.\nHe had no home runs, two RBI and a .571 OPS entering Sunday's game after hitting .325 with 16 homers, 68 RBI and a .935 OPS during his career season last year.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
