Delcarmen called up; Donnelly to DL

Manny Delcarmen has been called up to Boston, as Brendan Donnelly has been placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 11, with tightness in his forearm.

In his pre-game press conference, manager Terry Francona said Donnelly first felt the tightness when he was warming up in the bullpen on Friday night. The right-hander tried to work through it, but bullpen coach Gary Tuck had him stop.

Francona said Delcarmen has been pitching "very well" with Pawtucket and that he won't hesitate to use the Boston native in any situation.
