ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Cameron Maybin has left the Los Angeles Angels' game against Washington in the first inning after sliding awkwardly into second base.
Maybin was replaced by Ben Revere in left field Tuesday night.
Maybin opened the first with a single, but Nationals starter Edwin Jackson pitched out when Maybin took off to steal second. Maybin then adjusted his slide too late and dragged his right leg awkwardly behind him.
The Angels' training staff came to his aid. A grimacing Maybin was helped to the dugout.
Maybin began the night batting .236 in his debut season with the Angels. His first-inning single was just his third hit in 35 at-bats, but he leads the AL with 25 stolen bases.
