Marcelo Mayer placed on Injured List with wrist injury; Red Sox recall David Hamilton
Mayer suffered the injury in Wednesday night's extra-innings win over the Phillies in Philadelphia, which forced him to exit the game in the fifth inning. He was sporting a light brace in the clubhouse after the win, but was then photographed with a splint on the wrist on Thursday.
A disappointed Mayer spoke with reporters Friday in the Red Sox clubhouse, and said he and the team's medical staff will meet again to determine the severity of the injury.
Over the first 44 games of his MLB career, Mayer slashed .228/.272/.402 with four home runs, eight doubles, a triple, 10 RBI, and 20 runs scored. He was called up in late May when Alex Bregman went down with an injury, and started 29 games at third base. He had since shifted to second base upon Bregman's return.
Ceddanne Rafaella will handle duties at second base Friday night when the Red Sox open a three-game series against the L.A. Dodgers at Fenway Park. The Red Sox had gone 27-17 since Mayer joined the big league club.
The Red Sox recalled the speedy David Hamilton from Triple-A to take Mayer's spot on the roster. Hamilton saw action in 62 games for Boston before he was sent down, where he hit .179 (going 22-for-123) with three doubles and three home runs. On the base paths, he was successful on 15 of his 18 stolen base attempts.

A rodeo in Massachusetts? Here's where you can find it.
A rodeo in Massachusetts? The state's only weekly bull riding and barrel racing competition can be found in Rochester on the South Coast. The New England Rodeo originally opened in Lancaster in 2009 before moving to the Rochester Fairgrounds. "Most of the time, people come out and say, 'Oh, that's a real rodeo?'" said Elias DaSilva, a retired bull rider who owns the rodeo. It's quiet during the day but on the weekends, 3,000 spectators pack the stands. The rodeo draws in competitors from all over New England and even as far away as Brazil. That's where DaSilva is from. "Over here, this rodeo, people have never been to a rodeo before, they learn day-by-day how to be a cowboy," said DaSilva. DaSilva has raised all the participating bulls, who live on a nearby farm. When they're not at the rodeo, DaSilva said the bulls spend most of their days grazing on grain. They also love to play in the snow in the winter. "Those bulls have to be very healthy. I have some bulls over here, they're 12 years old," said DaSilva. "They have a pretty good life, they work like eight seconds every couple of weeks." New England Rodeo also offers clinics for new bull riders and opportunities for visitors to get up close to the animals. "I made a lot of bull riders in Massachusetts already!" said DaSilva. For DaSilva, the real satisfaction comes from giving New Englanders a chance to experience a longtime Western tradition, connecting with the cultural phenomenon dating back to 1888 in America. "I love this, I love to raise the bulls, I love to take care of the bulls," said DaSilva. "People come out and see it for the first time and love it." The rodeos are on every other Saturday night through September 30th. For more information, visit their website.
