Tony Richardson Jersey .Gomes suffered the injury when he fell and landed awkwardly on his shoulder while running to first base. Gomes right arm was put in a sling, and he was carted off the field.He stepped awkwardly on first base as he tried to avoid the swipe tag of first baseman Kennys Vargas, who was pulled off the bag on the throw from Eduardo Nunez.Gomes told reporters after the Indians 6-1 victory that he believes he has a separated shoulder. The Indians announced that Gomes would have his injury evaluated further on Monday in Cleveland but that he is headed to the disabled list.On Saturday, the Indians held what second baseman Jason Kipnis described as a?sacrificial ceremony?in the clubhouse before their game against the Twins?in Minneapolis, with the hope of helping Gomes end his season-long slump; the catcher had just one hit since June 29 and no extra-base hits since June 25.

The ball hit the foot of Minnesota starter Kyle Gibson and trickled into the outfield through a hole at shortstop, allowing Gomes to reach second base.I thought the sacrifice was supposed to be a good thing, Gomes told reporters Sunday.

It was his fifth double-double of the season and 28th of his career.Hes a big, physical player, California coach Cuonzo Martin said. He posts up strong, he posts up deep, he knows how to use his body, he knows where he wants to get offensively and I thought he did a great job really establishing himself in the post, getting to the free-throw line, getting offensive rebounds, so overall I thought he played a good game.Desi Rodriguez scored 15 points and Khadeen Carrington had 14 points with four assists for the Pirates.Carrington tied it at 45 with just under 12 minutes to play on a 3-pointer from the right wing, which ignited a 7-0 Seton Hall run.
