Highlights: D-backs belt 3 homers in 8th to defeat Mets

PHOENIX — The Diamondbacks placed center fielder A.J. Pollock on the 10-day disabled list Monday with a strained right groin and selected the contract of outfielder Reymond Fuentes from the Triple-A Reno Aces.

To make room for Fuentes on the 40-man roster, relief pitcher Enrique Burgos was designated for assignment.

Pollock, the D-backs’ leadoff hitter, injured his groin while running out a single in the 10th inning of Sunday’s 6-4 loss to the Pirates. He is hitting .299 with 11 stolen bases and 26 runs scored. He battled a groin injury last September — after returning from a broken elbow — and again in spring training.
