Chicago Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya is headed back on the injured list just one day after his return, following a freak injury during the team’s 4-1 win over the Blue Jays in Toronto on Wednesday night. 

Cubs manager Craig Counsell confirmed the devastating news after the game, telling reporters that Amaya suffered a left ankle sprain during the eighth inning. 

"Negative on the X-rays, which is great. We were a little concerned, obviously, at the time of the injury," Counsell said. "It’s swelling up pretty good already – it’s an IL. It’s a bad break – bad luck – unfortunately, and we’re going to miss him."
