PHOENIX (AP) — The San Francisco Giants put infielder Casey Schmitt on the 10-day injured list Monday because of left hand inflammation.
Schmitt last played on Wednesday, when he was hit by a 95 mph sinker from Miami's Calvin Faucher in the ninth inning of an 8-5 loss to the Marlins.
Giants infielder Tyler Fitzgerald was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento before the opener of a four-game set at Arizona. He got the start at second base against the Diamondbacks.
The 27-year-old Fitzgerald was batting .230 with two homers and 10 RBIs in 57 games with the Giants this year.
The 26-year-old Schmitt was selected by San Francisco in the second round of the 2020 amateur draft. He is hitting .276 with four homers and 15 RBIs in 34 games.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A shooting outside a church building in Salt Lake City killed two people and injured six others Wednesday, police said.
The shooting took place in the parking lot of a meetinghouse of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, widely known as the Mormon church.
Dozens of people were attending a funeral inside at the time. All the victims were adults.
Police said they do not believe the shooter had any animus toward a particular faith.
“We don’t believe this was a targeted attack against a religion or anything like that,” Salt Lake City Police Chief Brian Redd said.
Police also do not believe the shooting was random. Authorities said no suspect was in custody.
About 100 law enforcement vehicles were at the scene in the aftermath, and helicopters flew overhead.
“This should never have happened outside a place of worship. This should never have happened outside a celebration of life,” Mayor Erin Mendenhall said.
The church was cooperating with law enforcement and was grateful for efforts first responders' efforts, a spokesperson said.
“We extend prayers for all who have been impacted by this tragedy and express deep concern that any sacred space intended for worship should be subjected to violence of any kind,” Sam Penrod said in a statement.
The church is headquartered in Salt Lake City, and about half of Utah’s 3.5 million residents are members of the faith. Churches like the one where the shooting occurred can be found in towns throughout the city and state.
The faith has been on heightened alert since four people were killed when a former Marine opened fire in a Michigan church last month and set it ablaze. The FBI found that he was motivated by “anti-religious beliefs” against the church.
