PITTSBURGH -- The Pirates placed outfielder/first baseman Ryan O'Hearn on the 10-day injured list with a strained right quad on Sunday and activated outfielder Jake Mangum from the IL.
O’Hearn was injured while playing first base in Pittsburgh's 6-0 loss to the Phillies on Saturday. He collided with runner Bryson Stott while catching a pop-up in the third inning.
O’Hearn will likely be sidelined for about a month. Signed as a free agent on Jan. 8, O’Hearn is hitting .289/.368/.459 with seven home runs in 44 games.
Mangum had been sidelined since May 6 with a strained left hamstring. He has a .260/.333/.288 slash line with five stolen bases in 30 games after he was acquired from the Rays along with Brandon Lowe in a three-team trade on Dec. 19.
Mangum was in the lineup as the center fielder for Sunday’s game against the Phillies.
