Joba leaves game with knee injury

Joba Chamberlain was removed from tonight’s game in the first inning after being struck on the right knee by a ball off the bat by Adam Jones.  He was relieved by Alfredo Aceves.

Chamberlain struck out Brian Roberts to start the game.  After getting hit by Jones, he was able to recover and throw him out at first.  He then gave up consecutive singles and was limping around on the mound.
