Toronto, ON (My Sportsbook) - Texas Rangers outfielder Andruw Jones left Wednesday's 8-7 loss in 11 innings to Toronto with an injured right knee. Jones reached first for his only hit in four at-bats by jumping over first baseman Kevin Millar in the eighth inning. He stayed in to run the bases but was replaced by David Murphy in the bottom portion of the frame. Jones, who turns 32 on Thursday, is batting .444 thus far in 2009 albeit in a limited role (8-for-18) through five games. The five-time All-Star and veteran of 13 MLB seasons became a free agent this offseason after the Dodgers released him following the first year of a two- year, $36.2 million contract. |
