Between games of Saturday’s doubleheader in Cincinnati, the Pittsburgh Pirates placed catcher Roberto Perez on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain. The injury occurred while running the bases in game one of the doubleheader. The Pirates added catcher Michael Perez to the 40-man and 26-man rosters to take his place. To make room for Michael Perez, left-handed pitcher Sam Howard was designated for assignment.
We have placed C Roberto Pérez on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain and selected the contract of C Michael Perez from Triple-A Indianapolis.
