The Colorado Rockies placed rookie Jordan Beck on the 10-day injured list with a fractured left hand on Sunday and recalled fellow outfielder Sean Bouchard from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Beck sustained the injury after landing on his glove hand while making a diving catch of Nick Castellanos' liner in the first inning of Saturday's 8-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Beck, 23, batted .190 with two homers and eight RBIs in 23 games since making his major league debut on April 30.

Bouchard, 28, batted .222 with one homer and three RBIs in 18 games this season with the Rockies. He went 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts in his last four games with Colorado, however.
