Steve Somers had a beautiful monologue to open his show tonight.
When speaking of Luis Castillo’s injury, he rattled off about 20 things Castillo was not doing when he got hurt. From getting hit by a pitch to breaking up a double play to breaking up an on-field fight, none of them were the reason Castillo left the game early.
Nope, it was those pesky things called stairs.
After leading off in the seventh inning and grounding out, Castillo was returning to the dugout and heading down the stairs when it happened. He attempted to avoid a glove someone had left on the step, and landed awkwardly on his ankle.
X-rays were negative and the early diagnosis is a sprained left ankle, but no word on the severity of it.
As to who left the glove on the steps…I’m looking at you, Angel Berroa!
This is just another freak accident in a season of mishaps and misplays. I’m really not even surprised.
