Athletics' Austin Adams: Exits with neck tightness

Adams was removed from Saturday's game against the Astros due to neck tightness, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Adams entered Saturday's contest in the top of the seventh inning but was only able to face two batters before his neck forced him out of the game. Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said the reliever probably could have continued, so his removal appears precautionary. Consider Adams day-to-day for the time being.
