Bogaerts Foot Scare: X-Rays Clear, Expected Back Tomorrow
The Padres SS took a foul ball off his left foot and was removed from the game, but negative X-rays suggest no serious damage.
Xander Bogaerts fouled a ball off the top of his left foot during a game and showed visible discomfort. He finished his at-bat but was replaced by a pinch-runner after drawing a walk. X-rays came back negative, and Bogaerts stated he expects to be in the lineup the following day. The injury appears minor, though same-day removal from the game warrants monitoring.
