Reyes (ankle) out until All-Star break

All-Star shortstop Jose Reyes likely will be sidelined until the All-Star break because of a severely sprained left ankle suffered Friday night. Ten games into his Toronto Blue Jays career, Reyes was injured sliding awkwardly into second base during an 8-4 win over Kansas City. ‘‘It is frustrating. I love baseball so much,’’ Reyes said Saturday. ‘‘I love to be with my teammates on the field and helping my ballclub. Now I know I'm not going to be there for a little while.” Reyes was carted off the field Friday and placed on the 15-day disabled list Saturday. ‘‘A MRI came back, no fracture, but it’s a severe sprain,’’ Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said. ‘‘Right now, it looks like it will be three months, and that’s just getting to the point that he’s back in a big league game.” Reyes is hitting .395 and led the major leagues with five stolen bases. Toronto selected the contract of shortstop Munenori Kawasaki from Triple A Buffalo.

Sheppard quits WEEI while on the air

Weekend and fill-in host Pete Sheppard quit WEEI on the air, saying he could no longer stand working for the company. “I’m going out on my own terms this time,’’ said Sheppard, whose blustery but genuine, everyman style won him a loyal following during his two stints at the station. Sheppard built his greatest notoriety as the “Sports Flash’’ anchor on “The Big Show’’ during the program’s heyday in the early 2000s. He was fired by WEEI in January 2010 for what both sides said were financial reasons, then was rehired in March 2012. Sheppard said he was frustrated with the way WEEI’s parent company, Entercom, had been running the station over the past months.
