Red Sox place Shane Victorino on disabled list, call up Jeff Bianchi

Shane Victorino's return to action was as short-lived as it was productive.

The Red Sox have placed Shane Victorino on the 15-day disabled list, calling up utility infielder Jeff Bianchi in his stead.

Victorino has been in and out of the lineup of late with an assortment of aches and pains. Most recently, he started Saturday night's game against Los Angeles before exiting in the early innings with a calf injury. It would be no surprise if there was no single injury necessitating this trip, with the Red Sox simply trying what they can to get him healthy and able to play consistently.
