Phillies second baseman Luis Arraez suffered a left ankle sprain Thursday night and was forced to leave the game. With one out in the bottom of the sixth inning, Arraez bounced a ball to shortstop. Brewers shortstop Cooper Pratt threw wide to first baseman Jake Bauers. Arraez avoided Bauers around the throw and moved away from the first-base bag. When he tried to get back to the base, his left ankle rolled underneath him. Arraez remained down on the field as members of the Phillies’ medical staff attended to him. When he eventually got to his feet, he struggled to put weight on his left foot. After the injury, Arraez rolled into fair territory, allowing Bauers to tag him out after Arraez had initially beaten the tag to the bag. Arraez was 0-for-3 in the contest. He will be evaluated further, per the Phillies.
