A somber moment overtook Progressive Field in the third inning on Sunday, when shortstop Gabriel Arias was carted off the field during the Guardians’ game against the Cardinals due to a left ankle sprain.

Cleveland Guardians shortstop Gabriel Arias was taken off the field on a cart after sustaining a left ankle sprain in the third inning against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Arias slid to a stop in shallow left field trying to stop a grounder off Winn’s bat with one out. As the ball ticked off his glove, Arias rolled over and grabbed for his left ankle. Replay showed Arias’ cleat getting caught in the turf as his leg bent back awkwardly.
