Lowell placed on DL

Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell has been placed on the 15-day DL with a sprained left thumb. Jed Lowrie has been recalled from Pawtucket.

Lowell walked into the clubhouse around 5:45 tonight with a removable cast on his right arm. He injured the thumb in the first inning of Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

This is Lowrie's first trip to the majors.
