Angels' Simmons sprains ankle on dugout steps

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons suffered a sprained right ankle and could be headed to the disabled list after injuring himself on the dugout steps Tuesday night.

"Nothing is broke, but I sprained it pretty decent," Simmons, who was on crutches, told reporters after the game. "I tried to stay in the game, but they just thought it was smarter not to let me stay out there and have a chance of making it worse."

Simmons suffered the injury while stepping down the three dugout steps at Angels Stadium prior to Tuesday's 1-0 victory against the Kansas City Royals.
