NEW YORK -- The New York Yankees placed Marcus Stroman on the 15-day injured list with left knee inflammation Saturday, one day after he gave up five runs and got two outs in a rainy 9-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants.
Stroman went to a hospital for tests on his left knee after throwing 46 pitches in the rain Friday. Manager Aaron Boone said Stroman said his knee was bothering him, and the Yankees announced the move about an hour before Saturday's scheduled first pitch.
Stroman is 0-1 with an 11.
