MIAMI (AP) — The Minnesota Twins placed struggling starting pitcher Bailey Ober on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday with a left hip impingement.

The Minnesota Twins placed right-hander Bailey Ober on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due an impingement in his left hip. The move is retroactive to Sunday for Ober, who surrendered seven runs on 11 hits -- including four home runs -- in Saturday's 10-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers.

On second thought, maybe the nagging pain in Bailey Ober’s left hip really was a problem. Ober first mentioned the hip nearly a month ago, after allowing seven runs to the Rangers on June 12, but downplayed his condition as discomfort that he can pitch through.
