Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Chicago Cubs center fielder Brett Jackson
left Friday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates after crashing into the
wall.
With two outs in the sixth, Andrew McCutchen hit a long fly ball to center
that Jackson tracked down.
As he made the catch, he slammed into the fence in front of the bullpen and
crashed to the ground. He was attended to by teammates and staff before
walking off the field under his own power.
He was replaced in the lineup by Tony Campana and it was later announced that
he had a bruised left knee.
On the season, he is batting .191 with four homers and eight RBI in 31 games.
