ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -Tampa Bay Rays reliever Jason Isringhausen will undergo an MRI exam on his injured right elbow on Monday.
The right-hander left Saturday night’s game against Washington with pain in his surgically repaired elbow and was placed on the 60-day disabled list. He was hurt while making a pitch to pinch-hitter Corey Patterson in the ninth inning of the 8-3 Rays’ win.
The Rays expect to know more about the severity of the injury after Monday’s test.
The 36-year-old Isringhausen had surgery on the elbow last September while with St. Louis. He signed a minor league contract with Tampa Bay on Feb. 20.
Tampa Bay purchased the contract of pitcher Winston Abreu from Triple-A Durham to replace Isringhausen.
