All fans of the Washington Nationals held their breath as Adam Eaton went down after legging out an infield single in the ninth inning on Friday night. You never like to speculate, but it certainly did not look good. He was unable to put any weight on his leg, and had to be carried off the field.
Dusty Baker gave mostly ambiguous answers during his post-game press conference, and would not say whether it was an ankle or knee injury. It appeared to be an ankle injury, but Eaton was grabbing his shin and knee.
