ARLINGTON, Texas -- Texas Rangers reliever Josh Sborz was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right rotator cuff strain.

Sborz felt pain in his shoulder while pitching the eighth inning Saturday night against Houston. The right-hander, who got the finals seven outs in their World Series-clinching Game 5 win at Arizona last season, had image testing Sunday.

Texas recalled right-hander Grant Anderson from Triple-A Round Rock.

Sborz was a strike from a perfect eighth against the Astros when he paused after throwing a second called strike to José Abreu.
