Morales breaks ankle after walk-off grand slam.

What a tough break ( no pun intended ) for the Angels, their best hitter knocks a walk-off GS and then breaks his ankle celebrating.

From the "Bill Gramatica School of Celebrating"

So it's a fracture of the leg, not a broken ankle, as was first reported.

A season-ending injury after a walk-off GS, is there a more deflating moment?

Think I'd still rather be in Morales' shoes yesterday rather than David Huff's. Yikes.

Don't make the play if you can't handle the celebration . . . or something.

hmmm....see this all the time in basketball. how many times does a guy jump up for a rebound land in traffic and roll his ankle cause he stepped on someones shoe or something. it was only a matter of time before it happened with someone in baseball...jumping into a mob of ppl is never a good thing.

I don't see a leg fracture being season ending. Oct is a long way off.

Apparently there is a ton of swelling which is going to prevent surgery for some time. Word is he's done.

Yeah they have delayed surgery for right now...I don't see him being able to come back and play this year.

I love how last night LA hit another walk off. They didn't celebrate as much.
