Eloy Jimenez, Nate Jones Placed on I.L. by White Sox

Jimenez sprained his ankle in Friday's game, and Jones is dealing with elbow inflammation

Chicago White Sox slugger Eloy Jiménez and pitcher Nate Jones have both been placed on the 10-day injured list, the team announced Sunday.

Jiménez, who has three home runs so far this season, was injured during Friday’s game when he sprained his ankle while jumping for a fly ball at Guaranteed Rate Field. The outfielder has been diagnosed with a high ankle sprain, and will miss at least 10 days due to the injury.

Jones, who has an 0-1 record and a 3.48 ERA in 13 games this season, was placed on the injured list with inflammation in his right elbow, according to the team.

In corresponding roster moves, the White Sox have recalled pitchers Aaron Bummer and Thyago Vieira from Triple-A Charlotte. Bummer has yet to pitch with the White Sox this season, and has a career ERA of 4.36 and a 1-4 record in 67 games. Vieira has a career ERA of 6.75 in 17 appearances with the White Sox and Mariners.

The White Sox will wrap up their series with the Detroit Tigers on Sunday afternoon at Guaranteed Rate Field.
