Jones Sits Out Shea Double-Header with Back Stiffness
Chipper Jones (back) missed both games of a doubleheader on Saturday, but hopes to return on Sunday. “[The pain] is right in the middle of my back. I’m still having trouble bending over. I’m taking short breaths,” the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Jones named his son Shea after Shea Stadium because he hits so well there, and Sunday will be his last game at the park before it’s torn down. We’d think he’d play if possible, as a result.
