TORONTO -- One day after returning from a lengthy absence, Chicago Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya is headed right back to the injured list after spraining his left ankle while stepping on first base Wednesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays.
"You knew something was pretty seriously wrong pretty quickly," Cubs manager Craig Counsell said.
Cubs athletic trainers eventually lifted Amaya onto a waiting cart, and he was driven off while holding a towel over his face.
"It's swollen up pretty good already," Counsell said about Amaya's ankle after the Cubs beat Toronto 4-1.
Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya is carted off the field after spraining his left ankle during the eighth inning of Wednesday's 4-1 win at Toronto.
