The Chicago White Sox have placed right-handed reliever Liam Hendriks on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.
Hendriks, 34, has appeared in five games since making his season debut on May 29 after missing the start of the year following a diagnosis of stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The All-Star closer is 2-0 with one save and a 5.40 ERA. Fittingly, Hendriks’ first win of the season came on June 4, which is National Cancer Survivors Day in the United States.
Hendriks last pitched on Friday, earning the win as Chicago notched a walk-off victory over the Miami Marlins.
Hendriks’ trip to the IL is retroactive to Saturday. In a corresponding move, the White Sox recalled left-hander Tanner Banks from Triple-A Charlotte.
