Braves place Kolby Allard on 60-day IL with shoulder inflammation

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves placed left-hander Kolby Allard on the 60-day injured list Monday after he was diagnosed with nerve inflammation in his left shoulder.

Allard was removed in the second inning of Sunday's 8-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox. He told manager Brian Snitker he felt "some tingling in his fingers" after throwing a pitch.

"I just noticed him moving his arm and his shoulder and something didn't look right," Snitker said following the game.

Allard allowed four runs on seven hits in 1â…“ innings and has a 6.57 ERA in four games, including three starts.

The Braves recalled outfielder Forrest Wall, 27, from Triple-A Gwinnett before Monday night's series opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
