Liner off leg sends Bergesen to DL
Left shin injury allows O's to add Ray and Mickolio to roster

BALTIMORE -- The Orioles placed starter Brad Bergesen on the 15-day disabled
list on Friday, one day after the rookie right-hander was hit by a line drive
in his left shin. Bergesen's X-rays on Thursday were negative, and the
Orioles pronounced him day-to-day before ultimately deciding to place him on
the shelf.
The Orioles activated reliever Chris Ray from the 15-day DL and recalled
right-hander Kam Mickolio from Triple-A Norfolk, filling a slot made vacant
by the trade of George Sherrill. Ray, who missed all of last season following
Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery on his right arm, has a 9.28 ERA with
the Orioles in 2009.
Baltimore may turn to lefty reliever Mark Hendrickson to make a few starts in
Bergesen's absence, but another roster move may be required if the rookie is
expected to be out for an extended period of time. Bergesen, the Orioles'
most consistent starter, has 11 quality starts in his past 12 outings.
Bergesen was in the midst of another impeccable outing Thursday, only to be
struck in the shin by the last batter he faced. Billy Butler smashed a ball
back through the box and off Bergesen's shin, and the pitcher limped off the
field and through the dugout immediately after the Orioles completed the
forceout.
