NEW YORK _ Yoenis Cespedes fractured his right ankle by stepping into a hole on his Florida ranch last May after an encounter with a wild boar, according to a report.
The New York Post, citing "multiple people who were informed of the incident," reported the boar was removed from a trap on Cespedes' property in Port St. Lucie, Fla., and either charged at or startled the Mets slugger, causing him to step in a hole and suffer multiple fractures to his ankle.
The Post reported that Cespedes has traps on his property "for a variety of reasons, including to keep boars away from people," and that it may have been Cespedes himself who released the boar from the trap.
