ATLANTA (AP) Braves right-hander Anibal Sanchez has suffered an apparent left leg injury while running in the outfield before Atlanta’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies.
After receiving attention from Braves trainers for several minutes, Sanchez was driven off the field on a cart.
The 34-year-old Sanchez was running in the outfield with other Braves pitchers before Wednesday’s batting practice. Sanchez is scheduled to start Thursday in the opener of a series against the New York Mets.
There was no immediate update from the Braves on Sanchez’s condition.
Sanchez is 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA in three games, including two starts.
