Cincinnati Reds Manager Terry Francona Provides Injury Update on Austin Hays

Austin Hays left Wednesday's game against the Royals after fouling a ball off of his foot. Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona provided an update on the outfielder when talking to reporters after the game.

"We got him x-rayed, but it's inconclusive," Francona said. "We are going to get him scanned tomorrow morning at nine. You could tell he was hurting."

The 29-year-old has been one of Cincinnati's best hitters this season, slashing 308/.346/.564 with 15 extra-base hits in 30 games.

If Hays were to miss much time, it would be a big blow for the Reds offense.
