SAN DIEGO (AP) — The New York Mets placed right-hander Paul Blackburn on the 15-day injured list on Sunday, two days after he was hit on his pitching hand by a line drive by San Diego’s David Peralta.

The move was retroactive to Saturday and came after a long toss session Sunday morning that Blackburn said “wasn’t great.” He said there’s still some tenderness and swelling in the hand. X-rays and a CT scan were negative.

Blackburn (5-4, 4.66 ERA) was forced out in the third inning of a 7-0 loss Friday night. Blackburn shielded his face with his arm and was hit by the liner, which caromed to second baseman Jose Iglesias, who threw out Peralta.
