Atlanta Braves’ pitcher Tim Hudson had his ankle stepped on by Mets’ Eric Young Jr. at first base during a game between the Braves and the Mets on Wednesday night, and the injury looked awful.  We don’t know the extent of the injury yet but Hudson was down for quite a while as EMT’s attended to him.  Hopefully it is not as bad as it looks, yet ankles are definitely not supposed to bend that way.

Hudson had pitched a fantastic game up to the injury in the 8th inning allowing just four hits and no runs leading the Braves to a 6-0 lead at the time.

Our prayers go out to Tim.
