SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Giants starter Logan Webb has been put on the 15-day injured list Saturday because of right knee bursitis after struggling with knee discomfort in his last start, a 10-5 loss to the San Diego Padres.
San Francisco made the move retroactive to Wednesday.
“I haven’t missed a start in a long time, so it’s eating at me a bit,” Webb said.
“But I think it’s best for me. Best for the team. Best for the longevity of my career,” he said of going on the injured list.
Webb allowed six runs through four innings to the Padres on Tuesday night before manager Tony Vitello removed him from the mound.
“It’s a little bit more of a, I don’t want to say day-to-day thing, but a little bit more of a, give it a few days and then see where he’s at,” Vitello said before Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. “Better to keep the long run in mind."
The Giants recalled RHP Trevor McDonald from Triple-A Sacramento. In his lone start this season on Monday, McDonald allowed one run and two hits across seven innings.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Josh Jung and Justin Foscue homered, Alejandro Osuna had a pair of RBI singles and the Texas Rangers beat the Cubs 6-0 on Saturday night, ending Chicago's second 10-game winning streak of the season.
Jung, who finished with three hits, led off the second inning with a homer to snap an 0-for-13 skid since a 13-game hitting streak. Foscue's first career homer leading off the fifth made it a 5-0 lead for the Rangers, who had lost five of six games.
Jalen Beeks (2-1) retired all four batters he faced after relieving Jack Leiter, the Texas starter who had to work around nine baserunners and threw 97 pitches over 4 2/3 scoreless innings. Cole Winn and Gavin Collyer followed Beeks to wrap up the Rangers' four-hitter and fourth shutout this year.
Edward Cabrera (3-1) allowed five runs in five innings. He struck out six and walked one.
Chicago (27-13) was held scoreless for the fourth time after winning 20 of its previous 23 games, with those 10-game streaks sandwiching a three-game skid. It was the first time since 1935 that the Cubs had multiple 10-game win streaks in the same season.
Cubs left fielder Ian Happ extended his on-base streak to 30 games when he drew a walk in the first inning. The only longer active streak in the majors is 33 games by the Athletics' Nick Kurtz, who had two doubles Saturday in a 6-2 win over Baltimore.
Leiter allowed multiple runners in each of the first four innings. The right-hander struck out six and walked five, including his last batter to fall one out shy of qualifying for the win.
Rangers shortstop Corey Seager is hitting .197 after going 0 for 4 with three inning-ending strikeouts. The two-time World Series MVP is 6 for 47 (.128) with 19 strikeouts his last 12 games.
Jacob deGrom (2-2, 3.11 ERA) starts the series finale Sunday for Texas, and Jameson Taillon (2-1, 4.24) is set to go for the Cubs.
