Pirates place Josh Harrison on disabled list

The Pirates today placed Josh Harrison on the 15-day disabled list due to a left thumb injury.

Harrison sustained the injury during the seventh inning on Sunday’s 5-3 victory over the Indians. Travis Ishikawa, claimed off waivers Sunday from the Giants, will take Harrison’s place on the 25-man roster.

Harrison is batting .279 in 75 games this season. He is scheduled to have a second opinion on his injury later this week.
