ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies left Monday’s game against the Washington Nationals with an apparent left hand or wrist injury.

Albies showed discomfort in his wrist after fouling off a pitch in the third inning. Nick Allen finished Albies’ at-bat and replaced him at second base at the start of the fourth inning.

There was no immediate word from the Braves on the extent of Albies’ injury. He fractured his left wrist in July 2024.

The 28-year-old Albies has played in all 157 of Atlanta’s games this season. He is batting .240 with 16 home runs and 74 RBIs.
