Twins left fielder Delmon Young left tonight’s game against Boston in the ninth inning after rolling his left foot on the basepaths in the eighth.

Young took his position for warmups before the ninth inning, but Jason Kubel took his place. Young did run off the field briskly, not showing any signs of pain.

Updates to come…

Update: Young said he expects to play Tuesday against Toronto. He said he had most of his weight on his other leg, so rolling his left foot didn’t hurt as much as it might have looked. He did have the left ankle wrapped however, and the Twins will see how he feels before Tuesday’s game.
