Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Ryan Vogelsong has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with facial fractures.
The team announced the move Tuesday, one day after Vogelsong left PNC Park in an ambulance after being struck in the head by a pitch. The team said after the game he'd suffered an injury to his left eye, including the orbital bone, and was admitted to Allegheny General Hospital.
Batting with the bases loaded in the bottom of the second, Vogelsong had an 0-2 count when a 92 mph fastball from Colorado Rockies right-hander Jordan Lyles rode up and appeared to strike Vogelsong's head under his visor.
