Phillies' shortstop Jimmy Rollins sprained his ankle in the team's win over the Mets on Tuesday, but he isn't expected to miss any time, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

"When I first did it [going back into second on a pickoff attempt in the eighth inning], I heard a nice little pop. It felt like somebody had dropped a weight on it," Rollins said. "Going back in, I was mainly concerned about my knee, but it was the ankle that gave."

He plans to play on Wednesday night in New York, but Manager Charlie Manuel will likely have the final decision.
