Soto sits after fouling ball off foot |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) Washington Nationals slugger Juan Soto sat out the team's exhibition home opener on Monday because he fouled a ball off his right foot a day earlier. Manager Dave Martinez said the 2020 NL batting champion originally was scheduled to play Monday against the Houston Astros, before the mishap in batting practice Sunday. "Just being cautious," Martinez said. "Said he feels OK, but we're just going to give him a day or two. See how he feels tomorrow." |
