Chicago White Sox right-hander Carson Fulmer has been placed on the 10-day injured list after he hurt himself batting for the first time in his career.
Fulmer was called to bat during Friday night’s 4-3, 15-inning win over the Philadelphia Phillies. He suffered a strained right hamstring while running to first base after hitting the ball down the third-base line. He was thrown out and replaced by winning pitcher Josh Osich.
The 25-year-old Fulmer is 1-1 on the season with a 5.30 ERA, 20 strikeouts and 15 walks in 18 2/3 innings. He is 0-for-1 as a hitter.
Chicago recalled right-hander Dylan Covey from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Covey is 1-7 with a 6.99 ERA in 14 appearances (10 starts) for the White Sox this season.
