SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The San Francisco Giants placed outfielder Jung Hoo Lee on the 10-day injured list with a dislocated left shoulder and are still awaiting word on the severity of the injury.

Lee hurt his shoulder in the first inning on Sunday when it hit the right-center field wall as he leaped to try to make a catch on a drive by Cincinnati’s Jeimer Candelario.

Lee underwent an MRI on Monday and was set to meet with team doctors later in the day to determine the next steps of his recovery. Manager Bob Melvin said he won’t know how much time Lee will miss until after he meets with doctors but said he didn’t anticipate that surgery will be needed.

“We’ll probably have somewhat of a timeline later tonight,” Melvin said.

Lee was one of the big offseason additions for the Giants after starring for years playing professionally in his native South Korea. He signed a six-year, $113 million deal with San Francisco and has been the team’s starting center fielder this season.
