Seattle Mariners placed third baseman Justin Leone on the 15-day disabled list and recalled infielder Ramon Santiago on Wednesday.
Leone, a rookie, broke two fingers on his left hand when he was hit by a Matt Kinney pitch in the fifth inning of Tuesday night's 16-3 win over Kansas
City.
Leone will be sidelined at least four to six weeks and could miss the rest of the season. He was hitting .216 with six home runs and 13 RBIs in 31
games for Seattle
