Mark Teixeira placed on DL, Romine recalled

The Yankees have placed first basemen Mark Teixeira on the 15-day disabled list on Saturday due to a right hamstring strain. Teixeira suffered the injury Friday night after lunging for a foul ball.

Austin Romine has been recalled from Triple-A to give the Yankees a little more depth. With Teixeira out, Kelly Johnson will be the first basemen and backup catcher Francisco Cervelli may see time over there as well.

The Yankees hope that Mark is only out the minimum 15 days.

Solarte, Yanks' defeat Blue Jays 7-3
