Chicago Cubs catcher Jose Lobaton suffers shoulder sprain

Chicago Cubs backup catcher Jose Lobaton has been placed on the 60-day injured list after he landed on his right shoulder after jumping over Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Josh Hader while trying to beat out a ground ball Tuesday night.

The Cubs said Lobaton suffered a sprain.

Lobaton, who was serving as a pinch hitter with two outs in the ninth inning, hit a bouncer to the the right of Milwaukee first baseman Jace Peterson, who then flipped the ball to Hader for the final out of a 2-1 victory.
