New York Yankees' Josh Donaldson transferred to injured list with shoulder inflammation

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson has been placed on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation, it was announced Friday.

The move, which is retroactive to Tuesday, transfers Donaldson from the COVID-19 injured list to the regular injured list.

Donaldson also is appealing a one-game suspension by Major League Baseball for his "inappropriate comments" to Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson last weekend.

Donaldson admitted to calling Anderson "Jackie" -- a reference to Robinson, who broke MLB's color barrier in 1947 -- in the first inning during Saturday's game between the Yankees and White Sox.
