White Sox Place Bruney On DL; Recall Omogrosso
(CBS) As the White Sox prepare to take on the Yankees in New York tonight, the club placed right-handed pitcher Brian Bruney on the 15-day disabled list with left hip inflammation and purchased the contract of right-hander Brian Omogrosso from Triple-A Charlotte.
Omogrosso, 27, is 0-1 with a 4.09 ERA, two saves, 40 strikeouts and a .228 (28-123) opponents average over 21 relief appearances this season with the Knights. The 6-foot-4, 230-pounder owns a 1.42 ERA over his last nine appearances.
Omogrosso, who has no major-league experience, will wear uniform No. 48.
