Yankees RHP German (hip) lands on 10-day IL

The New York Yankees placed right-hander Domingo German on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a left hip flexor strain. German is 9-2 this season, tied for the American League lead in wins entering Sunday with Houston's Justin Verlander and Chicago's Lucas Giolito.

German, 26, is winless in his last three starts. He took the loss Friday at Cleveland, allowing four runs on six hits in six innings. He has given up seven home runs in his last 14 2/3 innings. The Yankees recalled left-hander Stephen Tarpley from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace him on the 25-man roster.

Tarpley, 26, has a 10.38 ERA in six games with New York this season, allowing five runs on six hits and five walks in 4 1/3 innings. --Field Level Media
