Sox's Eaton injured after crashing into wall

CLEVELAND - Center fielder Adam Eaton crashed into the wall making a running catch during the sixth inning of the White Sox's 10-4 loss to the Cleveland Indians Friday and had to be helped off the field after making a running catch on Roberto Perez's fly ball.

Eaton will likely be out at least one game, although his status was unclear. He sprinted to the warning track to make the catch, led with his left (throwing) shoulder, and a good portion of his upper body made hard contact with the wall, which is padded. He declined to talk to reporters after the game, looking somewhat woozy and moving around gingerly at his locker.
