Victorino and Bourn both head to DL

The Phillies placed outfielders Shane Victorino and Michael Bourn, both injured in Monday's 4-1 win over the Cubs, on the 15-day disabled list.Victorino was diagnosed with a strained right calf muscle while Bourn suffered a low left-ankle sprain. The club is hopeful that both will return in 15 days.

To replace them on the roster, Chris Roberson was recalled from Triple-A Ottawa and Jayson Werth will be activated Wednesday from his rehab stint in Clearwater.

Meanwhile, pitcher Clay Condrey was designated for assignment to make room for the newly acquired Kyle Lohse, who will make his Philadelphia debut on Thursday.
