Los Angeles Angels catcher Sebastian Rivero was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, one day after fracturing his left hamate bone during a game against the Houston Astros.

Rivero told reporters he will undergo surgery and miss approximately four weeks. He underwent a CT scan earlier Wednesday.

Rivero injured his hand and wrist area while fouling off a pitch during the fifth inning of Tuesday's 10-1 home victory. He was in immense pain and was lifted in favor of fellow catcher Logan O'Hoppe.

Rivero had two singles earlier in the contest and had a string of seven straight hits when he departed the game. O'Hoppe finished the at-bat by taking a called strike three and the strikeout was charged to Rivero to end his hit streak.

Rivero, 27, is batting .245 with eight RBIs in 24 games this season. He has appeared in 35 games for Los Angeles over the past two seasons.

The Angels recalled catcher Logan Porter from Triple-A Salt Lake. He recently signed a minor league contract with them after becoming a free agent. He had batted .241 with one homer and 10 RBIs in 17 games with the San Francisco Giants' Triple-A afifliate in Sacramento.

Porter, 30, has appeared in 16 major league games -- 11 with the Kansas City Royals in 2023, four with San Francisco last season and one with the Giants this season. He is batting .184 with one homer and four RBIs.

The Angels also transferred right-hander Jack Kochanowicz to the 60-day injury list to open up a 40-man roster spot for Porter. The club revealed Tuesday that Kochanowicz will soon undergo Tommy John surgery.

The Angels also said Tuesday that third baseman Yoan Moncada will undergo right knee surgery next week.

First baseman Nolan Schanuel, who left Tuesday's game with left calf tightness, wasn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
