The Boston Red Sox placed Wilyer Abreu on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday after the rookie outfielder sprained his right ankle from a slip on the dugout steps during a home game Sunday against the Detroit Tigers.

Abreu was walking down the steps and into the Red Sox dugout at Fenway Park when he tripped and got some help from teammates as he limped to the bench.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora discussed Abreu's injury during his Tuesday appearance on WEEI's "Jones & Mego with Arcand" program.
