 | Sunday, September 27th, 2009: Rockies Lose Troy Glaus
Troy Glaus at first refused to leave today's Atlanta-Colorado game after he suffered a hyperextended knee while running the bases. But his manager convinced him not to be foolish. "I'm a competitor," the feisty Colorado third baseman said. "I'll play through just about anything." Given time to reflect on the situation, he knew it was in his best interest to get immediate treatment. The injury is expected to keep Glaus out of action for 2 weeks.
In 2009 Glaus has put up a .212 batting average with 91 hits, 19 home runs and 59 RBIs.
