Luis Arraez’s afternoon ended early Thursday after the Phillies second baseman sprained his left ankle while trying to avoid a tag at first base against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Arraez left the game after the play and did not return. The injury came as he attempted to get around the tag at the bag, an awkward sequence that forced Philadelphia to make a change in the infield.
No further details on the severity of the sprain or a possible timetable were provided. The Phillies will await the next update on Arraez’s condition after the left ankle issue cut short his game against Milwaukee.
