MIAMI (AP) -Florida Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla left Saturday night’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks because of a left ankle sprain.
Uggla tried to stretch a single into a double in the fourth, appearing to injure himself as he pulled up to go back to first base. He was tagged out hobbling in the baseline and limped back to the dugout.
X-rays were negative, the team said. It was unclear how long he could be sidelined.
Uggla began Saturday leading the majors with 23 home runs. He was replaced by Robert Andino to start the fifth.
