CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs removed second baseman Javier Baez from Monday's game against the Miami Marlins because of a leg injury.
Baez was hurt during the seventh inning when Miami's Brian Anderson doubled into the left-field corner. Baez wasn't involved in the play but ended up in the shortstop position and squatted in apparent pain.
After a brief visit from Cubs trainer P.J. Mainville, Baez walked off the field under his own power but with a slight limp. He was replaced at second base by Tommy LaStella.
The Cubs led 9-2 at the time of Baez's injury.
