BASEBALL : DAILY REPORT : AROUND THE MAJOR LEAGUES : Darwin: Shoulder Injury, Pneumonia

Pitcher Danny Darwin of the Boston Red Sox was placed on the 15-day disabled list because of a muscle pull in his right shoulder and bronchial pneumonia.

“I just hurt all over,” Darwin said upon his return to Fenway Park from the University of Massachusetts Medical Center.

“I think we’re talking of short term with his shoulder problem,” said Dr. Arthur Pappas, Red Sox team physician. “Antibiotics and rest should take care of the pneumonia.”
