Indians OF Michael Brantley Leaves Sunday’s Game with Ankle Sprain

Indians outfielder Michael Brantley was pulled from the Tribe’s Sunday affair with the Kansas City Royals after four and a half innings, but not due to the shoulder that kept him out of all but 11 games in 2016.

The injury suffered according to Andre Knott of STO on the broadcast was that of a right ankle sprain, possibly suffered while running to first in the 3rd inning trying to beat out a grounder.

Entering Sunday Brantley has played in 25 games, hitting .289 with five homers, 17 runs batted in and even three stolen bases.
