White Sox place Murakami on 10-day IL with hamstring strain, recall Gonzalez

The Chicago White Sox placed Munetaka Murakami on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain after Friday's game against Detroit. He left in the third inning and Luisangel Acuña pinch-ran for him. Manager Will Venable said imaging would be performed the next day and that the injury could sideline him for a couple of weeks. Murakami, 26, signed a two-year, $34 million contract in December and has 20 homers this season. To fill his roster spot, Chicago recalled Jacob Gonzalez from Charlotte; the 24-year-old was the club's 2022 first-round pick and is No. 23 prospect according to MLB Pipeline. Gonzalez slashed .317/.419/.668 with 19 homers in 52 minor-league games this season.
