CLEVELAND (AP) -- Juan Gonzalez's latest comeback lasted three pitches. It will be a while before he sees another one.
Gonzalez returned to Cleveland for tests after straining his right hamstring Tuesday in Minnesota. The fragile outfielder, a two-time AL MVP who has spent most of the past three years rehabbing a variety of injuries, got hurt in the first inning trying to beat out a slow grounder in his first major league at-bat in over a year.
He never made it to first base, turning right, dropping his head and heading directly into the Indians' dugout. It's the same hamstring he hurt at the end of spring training.
The Indians said Gonzalez will be placed on the disabled list -- his 12th career trip there. However, the club will wait at least one more day to make the move and will have just 24 players available for Wednesday night's game against the Twins.
