Luis Arraez left Thursday's game against the Brewers with a left ankle sprain, the Phillies announced. Arraez had to be helped off the field and could not put weight on his left leg, per MLB Trade Rumors. Edmundo Sosa replaced him in the game, which Philadelphia lost.
The injury occurred while Arraez was running out a ground ball, ESPN reported. One account described him attempting to avoid a tag at first base. Arraez leads the National League with a .310 batting average and has been chasing a fourth batting title this season. The Phillies acquired him at the trade deadline.
