White Sox place reliever Huáscar Brazobán on the 15-day injured list with a lat strain

CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox placed reliever Huáscar Brazobán on the 15-day injured list Tuesday and recalled right-hander Jonathan Cannon from Triple-A Charlotte.

Chicago also put outfielder Andrew Benintendi on the bereavement/family medical emergency list before its game against the Texas Rangers. Infielder/outfielder Rikuu Nishida was recalled from Charlotte.

Brazobán, 36, has a left lat strain. The right-hander pitched one inning during Monday’s 11-2 loss to Texas, allowing one run and one hit.

Brazobán was acquired in a trade with the New York Mets on Aug. 3. He has a 6.30 ERA in 10 appearances with Chicago.

The 26-year-old Cannon is 5-6 with a 5.18 ERA in 17 starts and five relief appearances for Charlotte this season. He has appeared in one game with Chicago, walking three and allowing a run while failing to get an out April 12 at Kansas City.

Benintendi, 32, is batting .244 with 13 homers and 65 RBIs in 116 games this season.
