Naylor was removed from Friday's game against the Pirates with a left ankle bruise, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
Naylor seemed to roll his ankle as he hit an RBI single into right field during the eighth inning, causing Tyler Freeman to replace him as a pinch runner. He was diagnosed with an ankle contusion shortly after the game, so he appears to have avoided a serious injury. It's unclear if he'll be available for Saturday's contest.
