Notches steal in loss Polanco went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

Impact Polanco drew a walk and stole second in the first inning before scoring on a Taijuan Walker error. The 29-year-old outfielder has gone 2-for-7 with a pair of walks in two games since he returned from hip inflammation. He'll look to build upon a .202/.284/.364 slash line while serving as Pittsburgh's primary right field. Polanco has added nine home runs, 23 RBI, 24 runs scored and nine stolen bases this season.

Heads to IL The Pirates placed Polanco (hip) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Impact A trip to the IL seemed likely for Polanco, who has been held out of the lineup since June 29 with right hip inflammation. He's been diagnosed with a bilateral adductor strain following his placement on the injured list, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. The veteran did have a pinch hitting appearance Saturday, which will extend his IL stint into the All-Star break. Perhaps a more extended time off will be the key to Polanco, a .171 hitter in his last 13 starts, beginning the second half well-rested and healthy. The 29-year-old has hit .199 in 221 at-bats this season.
