On Saturday, Adam Jones fouled a ball off of his left foot and underwent an X-ray on Sunday that was inconclusive, requiring further testing. He is wearing a protective boot and is expected to undergo a CT scan today, but there is no word yet on the status of his injury. He's expected to sit out tonight's game against the Los Angeles Angels.
It's especially unpleasant for Jones who has had a sprained right ankle for a while now. "It's not comfortable," Jones said. "I'd be able to play if it was comfortable."
The center fielder has played in 108 of the O's 110 games, and is batting .279 with seven home runs. Though he's been pretty awesome lately, I definitely agree with Dave Trembley's decision not to play him until we know more about the injury, especially if both feet have had problems.
"My right ankle felt like this the other day," Jones said, "so hopefully I can bounce back as quick as I did the other time."
