It was telling that Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre immediately headed off the field after feeling tightness in his left hamstring Wednesday, which grabbed him as he ran the bases in the eighth inning of a 3-1 loss to the Astros.

He will miss Thursday's game, ending his streak of consecutive starts at 151. Jurickson Profar, who took grounders at third before the game, will start in his place.

Profar's season debut as a third baseman for the Rangers comes less than two days after he made his first appearance at first base, which yielded a positive review from manager Jeff Banister.

Wednesday was an off day for Profar.

The Rangers and Astros cap their latest series today, with first pitch slated for 1:05 p.m. at Globe Life Park.
