ARLINGTON, Texas -- Texas Rangers starter Yu Darvish has been scratched from his start Tuesday against the Oakland A's with neck stiffness. Scott Feldman will start in his place.

The Rangers said Darvish felt the stiffness Tuesday morning, came in for treatment and still had stiffness. The date of his next start is yet to be determined.

The 26-year-old Darvish has a streak of seven straight quality starts and has posted a 3-0 mark with a 1.80 ERA in September.
