The Washington Nationals placed first baseman Joey Gallo on the 10-day injured list with a shoulder sprain in advance of their road game Saturday against the Miami Marlins.

The Nationals called up outfielder Alex Call from Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move.

Gallo, in his first season with the Nationals, is batting just .122 with a .311 slugging percentage and leads the major leagues with 43 strikeouts. The 30-year-old has three home runs with five RBIs in 23 games.

In 10 seasons for five different clubs, Gallo has a .195 average, 201 home runs and 431 RBIs over 886 games.
