No answers from Ellsbury

Jacoby Ellsbury said he was examined in California and re-broke the rib in his back.
He then walked away, refusing to take questions.
More to come on this.
UPDATE, 4:19 p.m.: Terry Francona offered a muddled explanation, saying the injury is in the same area but that it wasn't clear whether it was a new break or a re-injury.
At best he's out 4-6 weeks and that's essentially the rest of the season.
Francona said he did not know whether Ellsbury would stay with the team.
