PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Pirates have placed rookie pitcher Jared Jones on the 15-day injured list with a right lat strain. The Pirates made the move less than 24 hours after Jones left following five innings and 78 pitches in what became a 5-4 victory over the Cardinals. Jones reported feeling discomfort in his right side during the game but said afterward, "it's nothing to be concerned about, I don't think." The 22-year-old Jones is 5-6 with a 3.56 ERA and 98 strikeouts in 91 innings in 16 starts.
