Follow usThe left-hander will be absent for a long period of time
The Atlanta Braves have put Kolby Allard on the 60-day injured list after tests showed the left-hander is suffering from nerve inflammation on shoulder.
The 25-year-old was forced of the pitch in the 8-1 loss to the Chicago Whites Sox, explaining to the head coach he felt “something tingling in his fingers”.
“I just noticed him moving his arm and his shoulder and something didn’t look right,” manager Snitker said after the game.
Allard allowed four runs on seven hits in 1 1/3 innings and has a 6.57 ERA in four games, including three starts.
Forrest Wall will take Allard’s place, as the outfielder was recalled from Triple-A-Gwinnett by the Braves. Next game is series opener against Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night.
