White Sox place Eloy Jiménez on 10-day IL with hamstring strain originally appeared in NBC Sports Chicago
O White socks placed Eloy Jiménez on the 10-day IL on Wednesday, a day after he strained his left hamstring while running around the bases.
Jiménez was injured while running from second base to home plate on a hit by Corey Julks in the fifth inning on Tuesday night. Gavin Sheets took Jiménez’s designated hitter spot in the lineup the next time he appeared in the order.
This is the second injury Jiménez has suffered while running the bases this season. He missed 12 games in April with a left adductor strain.
Jiménez is slashing .231/.288/.381 this season with five home runs and 12 RBI.
Additionally, the White Sox placed right-handed pitcher Steven Wilson on the 15-day IL, retroactive to May 20, with a back strain. The team called up outfielder Zach DeLoach and RHP Nick Nastrini to fill vacant roster spots.
