Share

Lance Parrish, who suffered a strained muscle in his right forearm a week ago, was put on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to last Monday. John Orton, who was optioned to triple-A Edmonton May 8, was recalled.

“I really wasn’t making a lot of progress,” Parrish said of the injury. “I can’t throw the way I want to and I’m still having pain in my arm.”

Mike Fetters, recalled from Edmonton Saturday, also arrived in Boston Sunday. He was 2-7 with a 4.87 earned-run average in 11 games, all starts. However, he will work out of the bullpen.

First baseman Wally Joyner didn’t start Sunday but flied out as a pinch-hitter in the ninth.
