Lugo out, Punto headed to DL
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Boston Red Sox shortstop Julio Lugo missed Saturday night’s game against Minnesota with a mild concussion, and Twins infielder Nick Punto was placed on the disabled list with a hamstring injury.
Lugo was injured Friday night when he collided with Matt Tolbert while sliding into second base. Jed Lowrie got the start in his place.
‘‘He felt a little woozy this morning,’’ manager Terry Francona said.
Lugo is listed as day to day and the team planned to make a roster move on Sunday, likely sending Lowrie down to Triple-A Pawtucket to make room for Alex Cora, who has been out since April 16 with a sprained right elbow.
Punto strained his left hamstring during the Twins’ most recent road trip to Chicago. He tried to test it out before Saturday night’s game, but said it was really sore.
The Twins recalled infielder Alexi Casilla to take Punto’s place after a 5-2 loss to the Red Sox on Saturday night.
