MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Baltimore Orioles outfielder Adam Jones has left a game against the Minnesota Twins with an illness.
Jones started in center field as usual and struck out in his first at-bat before being replaced by Matt Angle, who pinch-hit for Jones in the second inning.
Jones has played in 124 of Baltimore’s 126 games this season, batting .297 with 22 home runs and 77 RBIs. Angle was recalled earlier in the day from Triple-A Norfolk when the Orioles designated slumping outfielder Felix Pie for assignment.
