Boston Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez left Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays in the sixth inning because of an apparent ankle injury.
Rodriguez was cruising against the Blue Jays in the sixth inning when he ran to cover first base on a grounder by Toronto's Lourdes Gurriel.
First baseman Blake Swihart's throw was behind Rodriguez, who leaped to catch the throw and also to avoid a sliding Gurriel at the bag. As he landed, Rodriguez's right ankle appeared to bend awkwardly.
Trainers from both teams tended to Rodriguez and Gurriel, who initially stayed in the game.
