DETROIT -- Nick Castellanos left the Detroit Tigers' game against the New York Mets on Saturday with a non-displaced fracture in his left hand.

Castellanos was hit by a pitch during Detroit's five-run fourth inning. He stayed in the game and came around to score, but the 24-year-old third baseman was taken out at the end of the inning.

"Probably a minimum of four weeks," manager Brad Ausmus said after Saturday's 6-5 win. "Certainly not good news for us. The important thing is for him to get healthy. We're looking really at some point in early September that we'd get him back."

Castellanos is hitting .286 with 18 home runs and 58 RBIs. The Tigers said the fracture was on his fifth metacarpal.
