Baltimore, MD -- (Sports Network) - Baltimore Orioles pitcher Adam Loewen left Sunday's 11-10 loss to the Texas Rangers with discomfort in his left elbow.

The left-hander, who underwent season-ending surgery on the elbow last season, pitched a scoreless inning of relief, but was removed after back-to-back walks in the fourth inning.

Fernando Cabrera relieved Loewen and tossed 1 1/3 scoreless innings.

Coming into the game, Loewen, the fourth overall pick in the 2002 draft, was 0-2 in six appearances -- four starts -- with an 8.41 earned run average this season.
