MLB

The Minnesota Twins have placed right-hander Kenta Maeda on the 10-day injured list with a right adductor strain, the team announced Sunday.

Maeda suffered the injury during Saturday’s 5-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians, when he was pulled before the sixth inning after allowing three runs and three hits while striking out six.

The 33-year-old is 2-2 with a 5.27 ERA in nine starts this season.

In a corresponding move, the Twins recalled infielder Nick Gordon from Triple-A St. Paul. Gordon went 1-for-2 and stole two bases in his major league debut earlier this month.
