The San Francisco Giants announced that Tyler Fitzgerald has landed on the 10-day IL with “a left rib fracture,” prompting the recall of IF/OF Brett Wisely from Sacramento.
Fitzgerald took a fastball off the thigh against Michael King in the top of the 6th inning of yesterday’s loss and turned a double play in the bottom of the 8th but finished the game. It’s possible the injury didn’t even occur yesterday — edit: Yes, it appears this happened during the Rangers series. Per Shayna Rubin:
He’d missed a few games with a chest contusion he got diving for a ball in a game against the Rangers.
