New York Yankees OF Andrew Benintendi placed on 10-day injured list

The New York Yankees have placed outfielder Andrew Benintendi on the 10-day injured list with right wrist inflammation after he was hurt during Friday's 9-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.

In the third inning, Benintendi, who had a leadoff double in the first, swung and missed at the first pitch of his second at-bat against Rays starter Jeffrey Springs, a 90 mph sinker, and started shaking his right hand vigorously before leaving the game.

Benintendi had been slated to undergo an MRI on Saturday after X-rays on Friday were negative.
