White Sox's Jimenez to IL after outfield collision
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a bruised right ulnar nerve after leaving Tuesday's game at Kansas City following a collision in the outfield.
Jimenez was taken out of the game after colliding with center fielder Charlie Tilson while chasing a long fly ball off the bat of Whit Merrifield in the first inning of the Royals' 11-0 win.
As Tilson made the catch, he tangled with Jimenez, who fell to the ground near the left-center-field wall.
After being examined, Jimenez walked off the field holding his right arm.
Jimenez leads all American League rookies with 17 home runs this season and is hitting .244 with 39 RBIs.
