KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes was carted off the field Friday night after he appeared to hurt his left ankle while sliding into second base against the Kansas City Royals.
The speedy Reyes was attempting to steal second and made a late slide just a couple steps from the bag. His left ankle rolled beneath him as he slid awkwardly over second base.
Reyes immediately rolled onto his back and grabbed at his ankle, screaming in pain before pulling the front of his jersey over his face. Trainers from both teams ran out to check on Reyes while a cart was driven onto the infield from the bullpen in right field.
He appeared to have composed himself as he was lifted onto the cart and driven away.
