Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Kyle Freeland left Monday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field after appearing to injure himself running the bases in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Here is the latest we know about a potential injury suffered by Colorado Rockies pitcher Kyle Freeland.

Freeland reached base on a fielding error by Pirates pitcher Tyler Anderson (who pitched alongside Freeland as a member of the Rockies rotation from 2017-2019), then seemed to take an awkward step while running from first to third on a two-out double by Yonathan Daza.
