ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Texas Rangers center fielder Carlos Gomez is headed to the disabled list and will be sidelined for at least a month with a right hamstring strain. <\/p>\n
Gomez underwent an MRI and was examined by team physician Dr. Keith Meister on Monday, when the team was off a day after the outfielder got hurt in a 6-4 victory over Oakland. <\/p>\n
The Rangers said Gomez will be out four to six weeks. He will be placed on the 10-day disabled list before Tuesdays game against Philadelphia, when a corresponding move will be made to replace him on the active roster. <\/p>\n
Gomez, who had three hits Sunday, scored from second base on Delino DeShields two-out infield single in the seventh inning. Gomez lunged toward the plate to avoid a bat that was still on the ground. <\/p>\n
After the game, Gomez said he was going full speed and didnt want to slide because he thought he could get hurt that way. <\/p>\n
