| Minneapolis, MN (Best E Casino) - Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Mark Reynolds left Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins in the seventh inning after twisting his ankle in the batter's box. Reynolds swung and it appeared as if the ball ricocheted off his left foot, but it actually went fair and rolled to third base. Writhing in pain, Reynolds didn't leave the batter's box and limped back to the dugout. Augie Ojeda replaced Reynolds in the field. |
