Galaxy's Ricketts out up to six weeks with broken arm

Donovan Ricketts broke his left ulna - one of the two long bones in the forearm - after colliding with the Earthquakes' Khari Stephenson in the 21st minute of Saturday's game in San Jose.

An x-ray taken today confirmed the suspected fracture. The Jamaican international, who had just returned from Gold Cup duty, will have surgery Tuesday in Santa Monica and miss a minimum of four weeks.
