The Pittsburgh Pirates placed catcher Francisco Cervelli on the seven-day concussion list Sunday in a series of moves.

Cervelli left Saturday night's game against the Dodgers in the fourth inning after he was hit in the helmet by Cody Bellinger's bat following a swing by the outfielder.

Catcher Jacob Stallings, who was on the Pirates' Opening Day roster, was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis. He was with Pittsburgh in the majors until he hit the injured list with a strained neck on April 21 and then outrighted to the minors after completing a rehab assignment. He hit .275 with two homers and seven RBIs with Indianapolis.

The Pirates also recalled utilityman Jose Osuna from Triple-A. He hit .268 with two home runs and 13 RBIs for Indianapolis.

Cervelli, 33, is hitting just .193 with a homer and five RBIs this season.

New York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto has been activated from the 7-day concussion injured list and is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Detroit Tigers.

To make room for Conforto on the roster, the Mets designated outfielder Rajai Davis for assignment. Davis had a memorable debut for the Mets on Wednesday, arriving in the third inning after being called up from Triple-A and hitting a three-run home run in his first at-bat.

Conforto had been participating in baseball activities over the past two days and cleared MLB's concussion protocol. He had been sidelined since suffering a concussion on May 16 against the Nationals.

Mets manager Mickey Callaway said Conforto is "full go" with no limitations.

Conforto, 26, is batting .271 with nine home runs and 21 RBIs this season. He will start in right field and bat third in the lineup Sunday against Tigers right-hander Spencer Turnbull.

Davis, 38, had two hits in seven at-bats in four games since he was called up.

Callaway said the Mets hope that no other team claims Davis and that he remains in the organization. He said it was a tough decision to cut Davis, but the Mets wanted to take a longer look at newly acquired outfielder Aaron Altherr.

"I signed here to play here," Davis said as he packed his bag inside the clubhouse.

"I'm playing," he said. "Nothing wrong with me."

San Diego Padres rookie ace Chris Paddack was scratched from his start Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays because of a stiff neck.

The Padres announced that left-hander Robbie Erlin replaced Paddack as their starter.

"It's nothing serious in our minds whatsoever," manager Andy Green told reporters regarding Paddack's neck, according to MLB.com. "He woke up today and felt like he could pitch. We know, through the course of 162, he's not pitching every five days, so we chose to push him back for three days."

Paddack, 23, is 4-2 with a 1.93 ERA and a 0.76 WHIP in nine starts this season. He will start Wednesday's game against the New York Yankees.

The Padres also optioned rookie right-hander Cal Quantrill to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday after he recorded his first major league win on Saturday. Quantrill pitched six innings, striking out nine and allowing two runs in the Padres' 19-4 rout of the Blue Jays.

Reliever Luis Perdomo was recalled from El Paso in a corresponding move.

Green said he expects Quantrill, who is 1-2 with a 5.14 ERA in four starts, will be back with the Padres soon.

"We also expect to see Cal back in short order again, this is just baseball for the Padres in 2019," Green said, according to MLB.com. "We have a lot of starters we're going to use. We're going to give guys extra rest. We're going to do everything we can to make sure these guys are healthy for the long haul."

HOUSTON -- Red Sox manager Alex Cora said David Price, who left Saturday's game after throwing just 15 pitches because of flu-like symptoms, will be moved up in the rotation and could start on Tuesday or Wednesday.

If he is moved up, Price would be facing the Indians at Fenway Park on just two or three days of rest. It would also mean the Boston lefty would not pitch against the Yankees in New York, where he has a 9.79 ERA in six starts since signing with Boston in 2016.

"We'll see how he feels," Cora said on Sunday before Boston's series finale against Houston.

Cora was asked by reporters whether he would have still started Price on Saturday knowing what he knows today.

"Yeah, because you trust the individual and he felt he was going to be able to compete," Cora said. "But I got the feedback from the bullpen and then I saw it and I was like, 'No, we'll go somewhere else and try to get 27 outs somewhere else.'"

While Price was frustrated, Cora preferred to take out his star pitcher instead of risking injury.

"Obviously [he was frustrated] but he understands," Cora said. "It's too important for us. Like I said yesterday, shame on me if I let him pitch like that and something happens and he gets hurt."

With the bullpen short on arms after Price's short outing on Saturday, Boston called up left-handed pitching prospect Darwinzon Hernandez from Double-A Portland. Hernandez was slated to start in Portland on Sunday and will provide depth in the bullpen. To make room on the roster, the Red Sox sent down righty reliever Colten Brewer, who threw 2.1 innings on Saturday.

Toronto Blue Jays rookie second baseman Cavan Biggio recorded his two first major league hits on Sunday, including a home run, with his Hall of Fame father in the stands at Rogers Centre.

Biggio, who is playing in his third major league game on Sunday, had been 0-for-6 with three strikeouts before he singled to right field past San Diego Padres first baseman Wil Myers in the bottom of the second inning.

Then in the the bottom of the fourth inning, he homered 405 feet into the upper deck in right field for his first major league home run.

His father, Hall of Famer Craig Biggio, had 3,060 hits in his career. He started his career 0-for-7 before singling in his fourth career game, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

Cavan Biggio, who turned 24 in April, was hitting .306/.440/.507 with Triple-A Buffalo this season. He was selected in the fifth round of the 2016 draft.

Laura Muir beaten into third as Melissa Courtney wins women’s race on busy day at Vitality-sponsored event in London

Melissa Courtney finished a superb third in the European Indoor Championships 3000m but could be in for even a better summer over 5000m as she surprisingly outkicked Laura Muir in the Vitality Westminster Mile.

Despite a strong wind along Birdcage Walk, Courtney showed her strength by leading after a slow start and then repelling the challenges of Sarah McDonald and European champion Muir along the finishing straight outside Buckingham Palace as the Commonwealth bronze medallist retained her title.

Courtney was given a time of 4:31 which was the same as McDonald with Muir timed at 4:32.

Courtney said: “I’m delighted but a little shocked. I felt strong but the wind was tough and everyone was sitting behind me but I finished well.”

Muir had only arrived back from altitude in Switzerland the day before and endured a lot of travelling but admitted Courtney and McDonald were better on the day.

“I wanted to win but it’s okay at this time of year with a long season,” she said. “I had a break after the indoors and trained very hard at altitude.”

Scotland fared better in the men’s race as Chris O’Hare used his dependable strong finish that has won him European outdoor and European indoor medals in the past.

The clock was clearly showing 3:59 as he crossed the line and it looked as if he achieved the first sub-four-minutes mile in the event but road times are rounded up to the nearest second and it was officially recorded as 4:00.

“I was not too bothered about the time but to win the race but Tom Marshall set a good pace and I knew it would be fast,” said O’Hare (pictured below).

Also matching that time was the race revelation Jonathan Davies. The former European under-23 cross-country champion showed impressive speed in finishing second with Elliott Giles having his best mile race to date to finish a close third in 4:01 after having made much of the earlier pace.

On a day that saw had world record numbers competing over one mile – a total of 9198 finished – Anthony Whiteman came out of retirement to win the Olympians’ race in just over five minutes while Alyson Dixon (pictured below) was first woman with a time around 30 seconds slower than she had run in winning the masters title 10 minutes earlier.

Both W55 Clare Elms (5:10) and W70 Angela Copson (6:30) not only shattered the UK age group records but set world road bests that are significantly faster than the track world records.

Craig Sharp won the men’s masters race in a tight finish, while Mark Symes set a UK M50 record of 4:37 and Nigel Gates a UK M65 record of 5:20.

Steph Twell and husband Joe Morwood set a world record of 4:50 for a couple holding hands in a separate race, while Daniel Sidbury won the wheelchair race.

All the junior races were closely contested and there were under-20 wins for Sabrina Sinha and Will Stockley.

The under-15 races were won by small margins by Lewis Sullivan and Olivia Martin. The under-13 races, which were not GB championships events, saw success for Will Steadman and Isabelle Martin, the sister of Olivia.

Glasgow Warriors are a more robust team than the one that has previously "flopped" in big games, says centre Pete Horne.

Warriors came up just short in the Pro14 final, losing 18-15 to Leinster.

But having taken a battering in the semi-finals last season, Horne says there is far more "steel" about the team now.

"We're a different side to where we were 12 months ago, even two months ago," he said.

"In big games we've maybe flopped a wee bit in the past. We got pumped off Scarlets this time last year, we got hosed off Saracens in a big Champions Cup [quarter-final] game this season.

"Even though we weren't playing well, we showed a bit of steel and made it difficult for them."

Glasgow took an early lead thanks to Matt Fagerson's try but immediately conceded a score to Leinster centre Garry Ringrose after Stuart Hogg's kick was charged down.

A further try for the Irish side through Cian Healy and the boot of fly-half Johnny Sexton stretched Leinster's lead, before Grant Stewart set up a tense finish.

"It's gutting, it just feels like another one that got away," Horne added.

"We were right in the game, even at the death, but didn't play quite as well as we have the last month. It's just disappointing.

"Hopefully next year we can come good."
