Friars Alaniz Lost for Year
Tuesday, August 20th , 2080
San Francisco center fielder Manny Alaniz could miss the remainder of the season because of a ruptured achilles tendon. He exited yesterday's San Diego game after injuring himself while running the bases. The original diagnosis said Alaniz would be out 6 months. Later on his doctors said he could be out even longer. "He's done," his manager commented at the BNN press conference. "It's a season-ending injury, but it could have been worse. It's not the worst-case scenario, so we're happy about that."
So far this year, Alaniz is batting .276 with 17 home runs and 70 RBIs.
