Padres place Yonder Alonso on 15-day DL

The San Diego Padres placed first baseman Yonder Alonso on the 15-day disabled list Saturday with a bruised right shoulder and recalled outfielder Abraham Almonte from Triple-A El Paso.

Alonso was hurt diving for a ball in the bottom of the eighth inning on Thursday against Arizona.

He is batting .333 with 11 runs scored and a .427 on-base percentage in 26 games this season.
